An announcement of acquisition was made recently by Delivery Hero Group ("Delivery Hero"), a leading European global online food delivery company, acquiring Carriage, a young and fast-growing Kuwaiti food delivery platform operating in the GCC. In 2015, Delivery Hero acquired Talabat, another Kuwaiti food delivery company operating throughout the GCC for around KD 50 million.

It seems that acquiring Carriage would be a natural step forward to their current offering under the Talabat brand and the company hopes this acquisition will enable them to strengthen their foothold in the GCC region. For companies like Delivery Hero, this region has become increasingly attractive, as the region has demonstrated a significant potential for growth, as the food delivery market continues to evolve and mature.
