Waffle House partners with Roadie shipping app

Norcross, Ga. - Waffle House Inc. is partnering with mobile app-based shipping platform to become the first official “Roadie Roadhouse.” Roadie connects people with items to send with drivers who are already heading in the right direction.



Waffle House will offer Roadie drivers free food and beverages at its more than 1,750 restaurants in 25 states, and provide a meeting location for drivers and senders. Roadies get a free waffle upon downloading the app and a free beverage when they're making a delivery.



Waffle House will be promoting the Roadie app with in-store signage and through social media and email outreach to its Regulars Club members. Roadie will offer members of its community a variety of Waffle House promotions and special offers through the free Roadie mobile app.



"For the last 60 years, Waffle House has been a place for travelers and a preferred meeting place for our customers," said Walt Ehmer, CEO of Waffle House. "Roadie combines the two making it easy for senders and drivers who love waffles to meet at the nearest Waffle House. And who doesn't love waffles?"
