Historical Growth
Uber Eats launched in 2014 as UberFRESH, rebranding to Uber Eats in 2016. The platform saw explosive growth during the COVID-19 pandemic, with MAUs tripling from 15 million in 2019 to 45 million in 2020. Post-pandemic growth has moderated but remained steady, averaging 15–20% annually through 2024. The acquisition of Postmates (2020) and Drizly (2021) expanded its footprint in the US. International expansion into Asia (Japan, South Korea, India) and Africa has driven recent growth. As of 2026, Uber Eats is available in over 70 countries and 11,000+ cities.
What Is Driving the Change?
- Post-pandemic habits: Convenience of food delivery has become a permanent fixture for many consumers, especially in urban areas.
- Expansion into new geographies: Entry into Japan, South Korea, and India opened large markets. Partnerships with local chains helped adoption.
- Grocery and convenience delivery: Uber Eats expanded beyond restaurant food to groceries, alcohol, and pharmacy items, increasing order frequency.
- Subscription services: Uber One (membership program) offers free delivery and discounts, boosting retention and order frequency.
- Competition and innovation: Rivalry with DoorDash, Deliveroo, and local players has pushed Uber to improve service speed and reduce fees.
