Europe: Uber halts food rollout for Delivery Hero talks
Tap title to read story
Uber has paused its local food delivery expansion across Europe as it focuses on pursuing a potential deal with Delivery Hero, according to a report published this week by the Financial Times. The company is shifting resources away from a city-by-city rollout strategy to explore a broader consolidation of its European delivery operations. Such a transaction, if agreed and approved by regulators, could significantly reshape the region’s food delivery market and affect major gig-economy competitors. Neither the precise structure of the potential deal nor its valuation has been disclosed, and the negotiations have not been formally confirmed by the companies involved.
