Global online food marketplace with European leadership
Just Eat Takeaway is a global online food delivery marketplace established in 2000 (Takeaway) and expanded through the Just Eat combination in 2020. It operates across multiple European markets and beyond, connecting consumers with tens of thousands of partner restaurants. In 2025, Prosus led a take-private bid to acquire Just Eat Takeaway, signaling ongoing consolidation in the sector. The company’s strategy has included strong partnerships with major retailers and cross-border collaboration, while continuing to optimize its European footprint and extend into new categories. Just Eat Takeaway’s brand portfolio includes Lieferando, Thuisbezorgd.nl, and other regional brands, illustrating its breadth. The platform remains popular among urban diners who value reliable delivery, local restaurant discovery, and integrated payments. With the Prosus-led move, the company positioned itself for a new growth phase, focusing on Europe and adjacent regions while exploring synergies with other Delivery Hero assets.
