Yakir Gola, co-founder and co-CEO of GoPuff, is grateful to have made it on CNBC's list of 50 'disrupters' for the third consecutive year. 

CNBC's 'Disrupter 50' is a list of 50 private companies that have achieved growth and innovation in spite of market challenges, prompting large incumbent competitors to adapt. GoPuff was ranked 27th on the list, up from No. 36 in 2021. 

GoPuff, a consumer goods and food delivery company, differs from other delivery services such as Instacart in that it utilizes its own network of micro-fulfillment centers rather than procuring goods from other stores or retailers. GoPuff offers more than 4,000 items, ranging from alcohol to pet supplies to baby care items. Thirty percent of Americans live within 1.5 miles of a GoPuff fulfillment center.

“Honored to be included in @CNBCDisruptors 50 list for the third year in a row - a huge testament to the hard work and accomplishments of our team #Disruptor50,” Gola said in a recent Twitter post. 

The No. 1 company on the Disrupter 50 list is Flexport, a cloud-based freight service. More than 10,000 clients and suppliers across the world utilize Flexport to transport goods ranging from clothing to couches, CNBC said.

GoPuff has expanded its operations from Philadelphia to more than 650 cities, a recent Business of Apps report said. More than 10 million people have downloaded the GoPuff app, and 2.6 million people are active users. Its revenue has increased from $200 million in 2019 to $340 million in 2020 to $1 billion in 2021.
