DoorDash Partners With Spec’s Wine, Spirits & Finer Foods

Last-mile logistics platform DoorDash and Spec’s Wine, Spirits & Finer Foods, the largest liquor retailer in the greater Houston area, have partnered to offer people over the age of 21 across Texas alcohol delivery on-demand from 175 Spec’s locations.

“We are happy to partner with DoorDash to enable our customers to access products from our portfolio of locations across the state,” said John Rydman, president and owner of Spec’s Wine, Spirits and Finer Foods, in a release. “Our wide selection of beverage, deli and other entertaining products are requested by many of our online customers, but some were previously unavailable for on-demand access, even on our own app, until now.”

Tens of thousands of items across the portfolio of Spec’s locations are now available for pickup and delivery. From Nov. 2 to Nov. 17, 2021, customers can receive 20% off their Spec’s order of $25 or more using promo code 204TX at checkout, up to $15 (terms and conditions apply).

“DoorDash is proud to partner with Texas-favorite Spec’s Wine, Spirits & Finer Foods to responsibly offer adults on-demand alcohol delivery from 175 locations across the state,” said Caitlin Macnamara, director of alcohol strategy & operations at DoorDash. “Customers will now have access to tens of thousands of items at the tip of their fingers via DoorDash Marketplace.”

Prior to checkout, customers will be required to upload their ID for legal age verification. They are also required to meet the Dasher face-to-face as part of DoorDash’s delivery requirements. DoorDash, which began offering alcohol delivery in September 2021, says it maintains its commitment to facilitating responsible on-demand alcohol delivery.

Customers in Dallas and Houston can also order from Spec’s Deli locations on the DoorDash Marketplace, marking the first time that Spec’s has offered deli favorites on-demand. 

Family-owned Spec's, founded in 1962, has more than 175 locations across the Lone Star State.
