Uber customers can also order Hims & Hers products online through the Postmates app. Uber acquired the food delivery company last year for $2.65 billion.

Beryl Sanders, head of U.S. Uber Eats Partnerships, said, "We’re always focused on making sure our customers can get anything - and personal wellness is no exception."

With Uber’s delivery operations booming amid the pandemic, the company’s efforts to expand its delivery network are encouraging. Earlier this month, the company partnered with Serve Robotics, a company offering autonomous delivery services, to offer on-demand robotic delivery service through Uber Eats. The service will begin early next year in Los Angeles. Regarding the partnership, Sarfraz Maredia, VP and head of Uber Eats in the US & Canada, said that the company is looking forward to “test a new kind of delivery in Los Angeles, that's safe, reliable and environmentally friendly”.

Both Uber and Hims & Hers carry a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
