Food fight: Grubhub fires 50 delivery workers, sparking protest in Lower Manhattan

By Barbara Russo-Lennon Posted on June 18, 2025

The group, packed with app-delivery workers, elected officials, and immigrant rights groups, protested outside the headquarters of Wonder, Grubhub’s parent company, on Greenwich Street. They demanded answers as to why their delivery accounts were deactivated and called for them to be put “immediately” back in service.
