People really like being able to order dinner via their smart phone and have it delivered to their door. According to the Chicago Tribune, food delivery site GrubHub Inc. — which merged with former rival Seamless last year — is having a very, very good year. The company reported "more than a five-fold jump" in quarterly profits. Stock prices are up nearly six percent, and the company forecasts that it will generate somewhere between $68.5 million to $70.5 million in revenue before the end of the year.

Currently GrubHub operates in over 700 cities across the United States and works with nearly 30,000 restaurants.
