Uber Technologies Inc. entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the food delivery division of the Turkish delivery pioneer Getir for $335 million on Monday as part of a strategic push to consolidate its presence in the competitive e-commerce landscape. Under the terms of the transaction, which encompasses Getir's operations across its core markets, Uber will also invest an additional $100 million to secure a 15% minority stake in Getir’s remaining business units, including its grocery, retail, and water delivery services. This move comes as the global delivery market undergoes a period of intense restructuring and consolidation following the pandemic-era boom. The acquisition represents a significant shift for Getir, which was once valued at nearly $12 billion and stood as a leader in the 'ultra-fast' delivery sector. By offloading its food delivery arm to Uber, Getir is effectively narrowing its focus to its primary logistics and retail strengths while benefiting from the capital infusion and technical synergy of a global partner. For Uber, the deal serves to bolster the Uber Eats ecosystem by integrating Getir’s established merchant network and regional customer base into its existing platform. Financial analysts view this deal as a win-win for both entities amidst a tightening venture capital environment. While Uber expands its market share and streamlines its delivery portfolio, Getir obtains the liquidity necessary to stabilize its broader retail operations. The partnership marks a transition from aggressive competition to strategic cooperation in the delivery space, highlighting a broader trend where major tech players are opting to merge underperforming or high-cost divisions into larger, more efficient ecosystems.
