A ‘ONEDERFUL’ YEAR OF UBER EATS IN SRI LANKA
Written byIt’s been one year since Uber Eats entered the sunny shores of Sri Lanka and we’re proud to have delivered 3 million orders to Sri Lankans – giving them access to 34 available cuisines at the touch of a button, with an average delivery time of 30 minutes!
In a pre-dominantly call-based food delivery market, the local community has embraced the magic of online food delivery, with Uber Eats becoming increasingly popular across the island. We have received an overwhelming response to being the app of choice for delivering fresh and piping hot food in a reliable and convenient manner to hundreds of thousands of homes.
Uber Eats is committed to inclusive growth and to provide individuals from all walks of life a chance to earn a livelihood. We are proud to aggressively onboard women and transgender delivery partners, all of whom chose the platform to start their journey as entrepreneurs. Increased aspirations, the skyrocketing number of consumers going online, as well as high-speed internet and mobile penetration – are all a perfect recipe for Uber Eats to continue investing in Sri Lanka.
Celebrating a successful year, we have analysed order data to reveal some of our star players who have set ground-breaking records in the Sri Lankan food delivery arena.
- The single-largest order stands at LKR 51, 000
- Highest number of orders from a single foodie is over 700 through the year, which is 2 orders every day.
- Our star delivery partners single-handedly completed over 4,900 orders; further portraying our philosophy of empowering the local community while delivering quality service.
