He has made investments in delivery startups and is now available to advise the company.
Gopuff is a company that delivers a wide range of products, including medicine and home care as well as office supplies. It also offers quick delivery.
“I believe consumer commerce will be very different in the near future and Gopuff is building the platform to power it,” Iger said in a statement.
Reuters reported exclusively earlier in the year that SoftBank Group Corp, a company backed by SoftBank Group Corp, had engaged investment banks to help it prepare for an initial public offer (IPO), in the United States.
Gopuff’s demand exploded during the COVID-19 Pandemic, as people were restricted from going out by lockdowns.
