Third-party delivery service to add 200 drivers in area

TAMPA — Bite Squad, a leading third-party delivery service for restaurants, seeks to hire 200 additional contract drivers in the Tampa area. 

In a press release, the company, which operates in 600 U.S. cities, says newly hired drivers will be able to start work immediately. Applicants must have a valid driver’s license, proof of auto insurance and a smartphone. Applications can be submitted at bitesquad.com.

“These positions will not only help satisfy the continued demand for delivery from restaurant partners,” Bite Squad CEO Carl Grimstead states in the release, “they will offer employment during a time when many companies are cutting back their workforce.” 

To keep delivery drivers and customers safe during the pandemic, Bite Squad, the release states, provides masks, gloves and sanitation spray to its contractors. It also offers no-contact delivery for all restaurant orders.

Bite Squad also wants to hire 200 new delivery drivers in Sarasota.
