Delivery Solutions is an American-based software company that provides Software as a Service (SaaS) options to enterprise merchants, such as last-mile delivery, same-day delivery, curbside pickup, and Buy Online Pickup In-Store (BOPIS).

In May 2022, Delivery Solutions was acquired by United Parcel Service and became a subsidiary. It partners with Walmart, Sephora, Abercrombie & Fitch, ShopRite, and Total Wine & More, operating in North America, the U.K., Australia, and Europe.

History

Delivery Solutions was founded in 2018 by Arshaad Mirza and Manil Uppal,[1] who had previously started Lash Delivery, an alcohol delivery service.[citation needed] They saw an opportunity to create a platform that brought together different delivery fleets to help retailers improve their last-mile deliveries.[2][3]

In 2019, Delivery Solutions launched its same-day delivery system and worked with Total Wine & More.[4][5]

In 2020, the company added more features, including curbside pickup, BOPIS, order tracking, reverse logistics, and analytics. By 2021, Delivery Solutions had processed $660 million in orders.[6] In May 2022, Delivery Solutions was acquired by UPS and became a subsidiary.[7] Although it is now part of UPS, the company continues to operate under its original name and management.[8][9] After the acquisition, the founders of Delivery Solutions, Arshaad Mirza and Manil Uppal, continued to lead the company until they exited in 2024.[10]
