Deliveroo is 10 and to mark the special milestone it is rewarding 30,000 customers from across the UK with a £10 voucher. The voucher is available to use on Monday, March 13 and Tuesday, March 14, so people can join in the anniversary celebrations and order either a meal from their favourite local restaurant or a supermarket shop.
Since its launch in 2013, Deliveroo’s restaurant selection has grown from a handful of partners in London to over 60,000 restaurants across the UK and Ireland.
Deliveroo’s co-founder and CEO, Will Shu was Deliveroo’s first rider in 2013; 10 years on, the food delivery company now has a network of almost 90,000 riders in the UK.
Will said: “I started Deliveroo in 2013 with a mission to connect people to the best quality food from local restaurants and deliver it directly to people’s doors. It has been an incredible ride and I am really proud of what we have built - we have partnered with thousands of the UK’s best-loved local restaurants and grocers, which has also created flexible work for nearly 90,000 riders. Thank you to our loyal customers for being part of this amazing journey with us and for supporting local businesses on Deliveroo for a decade.”
Daniele di Martino, UK CEO of Rossopomodoro, Deliveroo’s first and longest-serving restaurant partner said: “We joined Deliveroo on day one in 2013 with our Chelsea site. We trusted the project with good reason and couldn't be happier about this decennial partnership. Deliveroo’s platform constantly evolves, always offering the best service and support.”
