We can hardly believe it. Sherpa’s has been serving hungry customers since 1999. We’re turning 18 years old this month! What else opened in 1999? Well, only the Jinmao Tower, Pudong Airport, and Line 2 of the metro! Yup, there was only 1 line in town when we first started out. How things have changed. But what hasn’t changed is our dedication to delivering great eats to hungry customers!
American Mark Secchia originally founded Sherpa’s as an MBA internship project for the China Europe International Business School. Instead of finding an internship position, he started his own company.
The first headquarters was set up in an office borrowed from a cleaning company’s. After the cleaning team would clock out, the Sherpa’s crew would come inside to use the computers. The original courier team rode bicycles with wooden delivery boxes strapped on the back and didn’t have uniforms, only baseball caps. Later on, the first uniforms were made by hand by one of the team’s mothers.
It was tough going at first. Mark would stand outside of expat hubs like Plaza 66 and the Portman with photocopied menus, asking people to try out the delivery service. He almost called it quits a few times and wondered if the stress was all worth it. We’re glad he stuck it through though. Sherpa’s is now partnered with hundreds of partner restaurants and operates all across Shanghai, Beijing, and Suzhou! No matter if you’re looking for an American dinner, Indian curry, or an Italian pizza and pasta feast, our professional courier team can make it happen.
