“Our food is fresh. Our customers are spoiled.” (FreshDirect)
FreshDirect delivers food right to your door. You wouldn't think that a company like that could make money in New York City - anyone remember Kosmo.com and Urbanfetch? Isn't there some type of food store on nearly every block?

FreshDirect started in 1999, and its quality and reliability have earned it a following. "Our food is fresh. Our customers are spoiled" is its slogan, since 2004.
