A late-night food delivery system run entirely by two Dickinson juniors is in the beta stages of the operation.

The Big Delivery was co-founded by Fatema Sachak ’18 and Jean-Daniel Goblet ’18. It runs Monday and Wednesday from 10:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. and on Friday and Saturday from 10:30 p.m. to 2 a.m.; however, “this is a beta test [for four weeks]” says Jean-Daniel Goblet ’18.

To place an order “people will just text me [their order, location, and form of payment],” says Sachak. Delivery is free for purchases over five dollars and there is an order minimal of three dollars. Any deliveries to off-campus housing will be charged an extra two dollars.

The duo came up with the idea based off their own needs as students. “Sometimes you’re just really hungry and lazy,” explains Sachak. Their original idea was based around a desire to receive Panera Bread and other establishments like it through delivery. “We actually discovered that people actually wanted more snack food [as opposed to chain restaurant meals],” says Goblet.

The project is still in its developmental stages, so “it’s just us [Sachak and Goblet] for now,” Goblet explains.

“It’s expanding,” says Sachak reacting to the big Delivery’s first non-friend customers this past weekend. “We just want to get the word out.”
