New Delhi: After conquering India with its transportation services, app-based taxi service provider Uber is all set to launch its on-demand food delivery app 'UberEATS' in the country.
Currently available in 58 cities across the globe including Bangkok, Singapore, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Taipei, Uber said it was working on setting up a network of restaurants, restaurant partners and delivery partners in India.
The company did not, however, revealed nor shared the launch date of the app.
"I am incredibly excited about bringing UberEATS to India. This is a significant investment, it spans across multiple cities and regions, and it has the potential to change the food industry - with the push of a button - in one of the most vibrant food cultures in the world," UberEATS Asia Pacific Head Allen Penn said in a blogpost.
The US-based company had started UberEATS in 2014 as a small delivery pilot in Los Angeles. Since then, it has been expanded to become a stand-alone app.
It added that the new app will give consumers, restaurant partners, and delivery partners more options across India.
"Restaurants can tap into the Uber delivery network to expand their businesses and reach a new network of potential customers. And delivery partners now have access to even more flexible earning opportunities," the blogpost said.
