In Zahlen
The global delivery market experienced a major shock following the agreement for Uber to acquire Germany-based Delivery Hero for 13.7 billion US dollars. This massive acquisition potentially gives Uber control over PedidosYa, one of the leading platforms operating in Latin America and Peru. The completion of the transaction is subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals.
As part of the deal, Delivery Hero agreed to sell its operations in 14 countries, such as Spain, Chile, and Ecuador, to the American fund SSW Partners for approximately 1.6 billion US dollars. In this context, it is stated that a decision was made to separate in order to prevent overlaps in markets where Uber Eats currently operates. Meanwhile, PedidosYa will maintain its presence in 13 different Latin American countries, including Peru, and will be part of the asset package acquired by Uber.
The impact of the change on the Peruvian market seems likely to remain limited in the short term. Experts indicate that the closure is targeted for the second half of 2027 and that until then, PedidosYa will continue its current operations independently. However, this is interpreted as a strong return for Uber to the delivery sector following the withdrawal of Uber Eats from Peru in 2020.
