Do you deliver?

The online food delivery market can be split between platform-to-consumer-delivery (when the online order and delivery are both carried out by the platform) and restaurant-to-consumer delivery (when the order is delivered directly by the restaurant). Just Eat Takeaway.com’s business primarily falls into the latter, however following their growth success the brand plans to further invest in delivery services to compete with rivals such as Deliveroo and UberEats.
