Uber Eats

Uber Eats is a leading global online food ordering and delivery platform. It was launched in August 2014 by its parent company, Uber Technologies, Inc. Initially starting as a pilot program called 'UberFRESH' in Santa Monica, California, the service quickly evolved into a standalone application. By 2015, it officially rebranded as Uber Eats and began its rapid international expansion, starting with cities like Toronto, London, and Paris.

The platform operates by connecting consumers with local restaurants and independent delivery partners. While it is headquartered in San Francisco, California, Uber Eats serves thousands of cities across approximately 45 countries. The service does not 'manufacture' physical goods; instead, it provides a digital logistics infrastructure that facilitates the preparation and transport of meals and groceries globally.

As of 2026, Uber Eats remains a primary subsidiary of Uber Technologies, Inc., which is a publicly-traded American multinational. The company has significantly expanded its market share through strategic acquisitions, such as the purchase of Postmates in 2020 and its 2025 entry into the Turkish market via Trendyol Go. Its ownership today includes major institutional investors such as The Vanguard Group, BlackRock, and the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia.
