Uber has filed a lawsuit against DoorDash in California, alleging that the delivery company stifles competition by coercing restaurants into exclusive partnerships. This suit claims DoorDash uses intimidation tactics, including threats of significant fines, to force restaurants to utilize only its services for first-party deliveries. Uber argues that this behavior undermines fair competition and limits options for consumers and restaurant owners. DoorDash, holding a dominant share in the food delivery market, denied these allegations, stating they lack merit and are a reflection of Uber's shortcomings in providing alternatives.
DoorDash pressures restaurants to strike exclusive or near-exclusive agreements for first-party delivery services, threatening them with multimillion-dollar penalties if they don't comply.
