DoorDash Will Bring You THC

DoorDash announced they will be delivering hemp THC and CBD!

In exciting news to every busy or lazy person out there, DoorDash will bring you THC. Yes, the popular food delivery platform, has expanded its offerings to include hemp-derived products in select markets, marking a significant shift in the on-demand delivery landscape. As of January 9, 2025, customers of legal age can now order a variety of hemp-derived THC and CBD products directly to their doorstep. Hemp is gaining in popularity and starting to pop up in liquor and convenience stores.

This new category includes items such as gummies, drinks, mints, chocolates, and honey sticks, all containing no more than 0.3% Delta-9 THC on a dry weight basis. The move comes in response to growing consumer demand for these products, with nearly 75% of adults aged 21-65 considering incorporating THC/ CBD products into their routine for relaxation and stress relief.

To access these products, eligible customers can simply select the CBD/THC tab in the DoorDash app, where they can browse and order from a selection of hemp-derived beverages, topicals, and edibles.

The company has implemented multiple safeguards, including electronic ID verification, to ensure that only customers of legal age can purchase these products. DoorDash is offering these products through various channels, including their own fulfillment platform, DashMart, as well as partnering with retailers like Total Wine & More and ABC Fine Wine & Spirits. This expansion allows DoorDash to tap into a growing market while providing consumers with convenient access to products they desire for relaxation and enjoyment.
This move by DoorDash reflects a broader trend in the delivery industry, as companies explore new product categories to meet evolving consumer preferences. However, it’s crucial to understand that these products have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration for safety or efficacy.
As the market for hemp-derived products continues to grow, DoorDash’s entry into this space could potentially reshape the landscape of on-demand delivery services. It remains to be seen how this new offering will impact the company’s business and consumer behavior in the long term.

It’s important to note that while DoorDash is expanding into hemp-derived products, they are not delivering marijuana. The company is operating within the legal framework of the 2018 Farm Bill, which legalized hemp-derived products containing no more than 0.3% Delta-9 THC. Several key marijuana beverage and edible companies like Wana Brands have rolled out hemp products to expand their selection and to available in most states.
