An Uber Eats executive explains why the suburbs are key to its fastest-growing business area
An Uber driver takes delivery of bags of donuts destined for a customer via Uber Eats in Sydney, Australia.Uber EatsThe business is one of Uber's fastest-growing areas, and its first that's not for taxi rides.
When it comes to delivery, Chinese food and pizza are about all that many Americans are used to ordering. Uber Eats first launched more than three years ago, and has expanded to more than 350 markets served by 300,000 couriers. Not only is delivery one of the fastest-growing areas of Uber's business, it showcases the "power of the Uber platform," as executives are quick to point out. In other words, a vast global network of services powered by a phone app can mean just more than digital taxi hailing. The company hopes it can soon reach everything, and has a focus on groceries next.
It's not just diners who benefit, either. Uber can leverage its massive network of data to expand local restaurants reach. Many of those small eateries might not have even had delivery options before.
