Our take
Just Eat Takeaway, born from the merger of Just Eat and Takeaway.com, stands as a formidable force in the realm of food delivery. Surpassing expectations, this union has made way for the world's largest online food delivery entity outside of China. Bolstering its stature further, the company made a significant move in 2021 by venturing into the US market through the acquisition of Grubhub, solidifying its position as a major player in the industry.
However, amidst its successes, Just Eat Takeaway faces competition from competitors like Uber Eats and Deliveroo. While it dominates the UK market, its global revenue pales in comparison its its rivals, such as Delivery Hero and DoorDash. Nonetheless, the company's established stronghold in one of the world's largest food delivery markets offers a degree of stability amid the fluctuating demands of customers witnessed in recent years.
To stay ahead, Just Eat Takeaway must act swiftly, particularly in outpacing its UK competitors. While it was the last among the trio to venture into the fast grocery delivery sector, its recent partnership with Co-op signals a proactive approach. Furthermore, the company continues to carve out its niche by offering exclusive services, such as being the sole courier for Domino's Pizza in the UK and Ireland, adding unique value to its offerings.
