Deliveroo - An Incredible Ride to IPO

10 March 2021Reports

Overview

Deliveroo is reported to target a $10B valuation in an upcoming IPO. In preparation for the much-anticipated listing, together with Dealroom we have looked at Deliveroo's 9-year ride to (potential) decacorn status.

Key takeaways

Deliveroo has been one of the fastest-growing tech companies in Europe - an incredible ride for founders and investors alike.
The COVID-19 pandemic has fuelled the delivery boom, and Deliveroo increased its UK market share in the process, from 16% to 20%.
Deliveroo commands the highest average order value in UK food delivery.
Meal delivery markets are each dominated by a small number of young players.
Meal delivery still remains a small part of the overall restaurant opportunity, which itself pales in comparison to grocery delivery.
