We’re marking our second year anniversary in Sri Lanka, after successfully delivering 10 million orders to hungry eaters. We more than doubled our orders in our second year of operations, compared with the 3 million orders delivered during our first year. 

We remain committed to an ethos of inclusive growth, providing eaters access to a range of cuisines while also offering economic opportunities to courier and restaurant partners. 

Working with the Sri Lankan communities, we’ve provided flexible earning opportunities to individuals from all walks of life. In the span of two years, over 8,000 courier partners have chosen Uber Eats to earn through the platform. We’re now present in the cities of Colombo, Kandy, Negombo and their suburbs.

We continue to support the needs of the Sri Lankan people, especially during this pandemic. Over the past few months, we’ve enabled a ‘tipping’ feature to help courier partners make extra earnings and help them support their families. We also worked with the government to distribute Rs. 8.5 million worth of dry rations to the marginalised, even as the country reeled under a national curfew. As a responsible business, we’ve always endeavoured to give back to the community. 

As we steal a short moment to reflect on our eventful journey here, we’d like to thank all the restaurant partners, courier partners and our loyal eaters for their unwavering support. 

We’re only getting started with our range of services, and there’s many exciting additions in the works.
