Uber Technologies, Inc. announced an agreement to acquire the delivery portfolio of Getir in Türkiye from Mubadala Investment Company, marking a significant expansion of Uber's presence in one of the region's most dynamic digital commerce markets. The transaction, which remains subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions, covers Getir's food, grocery, retail, and water delivery operations across the country.
The acquisition represents another major step in Uber's long-term investment strategy in Türkiye, following its previous purchase of a majority stake in Trendyol Go. Once finalized, the integration of Getir's delivery services with Trendyol Go is expected to enhance platform capabilities, expand product and service offerings for consumers, and create additional earning opportunities for couriers while supporting restaurants and retailers nationwide.
Under the terms of the agreement, Getir users will continue to access services through the Getir Super App, with expanded restaurant options integrated via Trendyol Go. Similarly, Trendyol Go customers will gain direct access to Getir's grocery delivery services, strengthening the interoperability of Türkiye's fast-growing digital delivery ecosystem and reinforcing the country's role as the nexus of mobility and digital commerce.
Speaking on the recent agreement, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi emphasized Türkiye's strategic importance to the company, highlighting the country's thriving digital economy and strong consumer base as key drivers behind the investment decision. Meanwhile, Mubadala Investment Company Deputy Group CEO Waleed Al Mokarrab Al Muhairi described the transaction as a reflection of Getir's operational strength and growth trajectory, noting that Türkiye remains an attractive market for long-term investment opportunities.
Getir CEO Batuhan Gültakan described the agreement as a milestone in the company's growth journey, highlighting the brand's pioneering role in ultrafast delivery services since its launch in Istanbul in 2015.
Uber's broader commitment to Türkiye extends beyond acquisitions. The company has also announced plans to establish a software and technology development center in the country, targeting a USD 200 million investment over the next five years. The initiative aims to strengthen Uber's global engineering capabilities while contributing to Türkiye's expanding technology ecosystem and digital infrastructure.
