UTICA, N.Y. -- Starting this Wednesday, alcohol can be delivered right to your front door, and it can all be done in just a few easy steps.
CNY Apps has been working on the 'Orderit' App for the last 5 years.
"We're in a fast paced world and everyone is on their phone all day, even texting. Everything's an app on your phone so having the branding right there on your phone and just to be able to order it, the catch phrase, how simple it is to order it, just order it," said Joe Sweet, CEO of CNY Apps.
While these types of apps are common in the New York City area, creators say 'Orderit' is the first alcohol delivery service in upstate New York.
"They're cooking dinner and forgot to stop at the store, a party's going on, you've got a holiday party or a birthday party, Valentine's Day is coming up and you want to send a bottle of wine, it's easy you can do it right through the app," said Sweet.
For now, deliveries will be made to people only within an 8 mile radius of Utica.
They've partnered with Seneca Wine and Liquor to assemble and make the deliveries.
"It's two Utica companies getting together and I wish them all the best. I'm glad that we're the first store to do it and hopefully they're going to have a lot more," said Gregory Gorea, co-owner of Seneca Wine and Liquors.
