We just reported on what kind of ads you’ll see on Disney+, a big change coming to Disney Cruise Line, and even what former Disney employees are up to these days! And we’ve just heard that former Disney CEO, Bob Iger, has invested an undisclosed amount of money into a new delivery startup service.
Gopuff is a delivery service offered in 1000 cities across the United States and Europe that offers “rapid delivery of an assortment of products including home care, medicine, pet care, office supplies, beauty and wellness items” according to Reuters. Bob Iger, the former Disney CEO, has just invested in the company and will join it as an advisor.

In a statement, Iger said, “I believe consumer commerce will be very different in the near future and Gopuff is building the platform to power it.” Interesting! Since leaving the Walt Disney Company, Iger has also purchased a 25% stake in Funko. You can read more about that decision here.
