Over the last few years, Uber has been paying more attention to its delivery services as a part of the larger business concept. Uber Eats enables clients to order foods in restaurants through the company application, and the foods are delivered by drivers or couriers. The platform belongs to the activity of the Uber to provide a variety of services, such as grocery delivery and ride-hailing.
This growth follows the competition in the online food delivery market in Europe that is still intense. Already we have companies like Just Eat Takeaway and Delivery Hero that conduct their activities in various markets in Europe. The move to the new countries will widen the geographic reach of Uber and will broaden its services in the regional delivery industry.
