It was announced today that Deliveroo has teamed up with 14 of Limerick City’s finest eateries to secure its second Munster county.
The on-demand delivery service announced its plans to expand into Limerick last month, working to secure over 50 new rider jobs and as well as supporting the local hospitality industry.
Since its launch in 2015, Deliveroo has signed up over 200 restaurants across Ireland and created more than 400 new jobs to service its platform operations across its four Irish hubs; Dublin, Cork, Galway and most recently, Belfast.
Since Deliveroo’s entry into Ireland in April 2015, Deliveroo has grown daily orders tenfold and expanded its service to 70 cities across 12 countries. Unlike the majority of food delivery businesses that act as marketplaces for takeaway restaurants, Deliveroo partners with high-end restaurants and cafEs that don’t typically offer delivery, opening up a whole new world of choice for locals.
Deliveroo General Manager of Ireland, Oliver Dewhurst said, "The pace at which our services have been adopted in Ireland has been extremely impressive. Limerick people appreciate quality food and that’s evidenced by the breadth and quality of the high-end restaurants on offer here."
He added, "Currently, our services are available in the Limerick’s city centre, but over the coming months we hope to be able to expand our zones based on our customer demand."
Deliveroo today confirmed the following restaurants as part of its expansion into Limerick City, they are:
• Milano
• La Piccola Pizzeria
• El Toro BBQ
• Mejana Restaurant
• Cedar House
• Brew Bros
• La Cucina
• Lana Asian Street Food
• COQBULL
• Kyoto Sushi & Noodle
• Bon Appetite
• The Buttery
• Kaya Thai
