Online homemade food delivery app Cookin is expanding its service to cover residents across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
The expansion allows residents in Thornhill, North York, Etobicoke and parts of Scarborough, Mississauga, Richmond Hill and Markham to order meals cooked by professional home cooks.
Cookin chose the GTA region due to its diversity. Residents can order ready-to-eat home-cooked meals ranging from biryani to dumplings.
Cookin CEO Morley Ivers said: “Cookin’s expansion to new communities throughout the GTA is a big step forward.
“When Cookin first surpassed 10,000 meals delivered in Toronto, it was a big moment for our team and it was also a signal that we were ready to expand. Today, we are excited to help more than 4,000 talented food creators who have applied to build their small businesses on Cookin.
“With every order delivered, we take pride in sharing amazing food from professional home chefs, and it’s momentous that we can now share that experience beyond Toronto’s core.”
