Deliveroo sign-ups surged 50% in March

Restaurants turn to delivery to help prevent transmission of COVID-19.

Deliveroo saw a 50% MoM jump in restaurant sign-ups as of 1 March, a press release revealed. The food delivery platform also shared that they had over 600 restaurants join their platform since late-January.

This comes on the back of many brands turning to delivery to sustain their businesses as people became wary if dining out over COVID-19 concerns. Government measures have also been implemented to prevent local transmission of the pandemic, which then caused restaurants to reduce their dine-in capacity and maintain a safe distance between customers.

The app earlier introduced the ‘contact-free delivery’ to restaurants and shared expert advice and guidance on operating safely during the outbreak. MOS Burger and Food Republic have recently joined Deliveroo’s roster, whilst Isaac Toast, Mellben Signature & Seafood, and Kopi & Tarts will soon take part.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
