CCD partners with Uber for food products distribution

Coffee Day Enterprises, which runs coffee chain under brand name Cafe Coffee Day, today said its subsidiary has entered into an agreement with Uber Portier B V for the distribution of food products in India.

"Coffee Day Global Ltd (CDGL) has entered into an agreement with Uber Portier B V, wherein CDGL is partnering with UBER for obtaining technology services through the "UberEats" mobile application in order to enable distribution of food products," Coffee Day Enterprises said in a BSE filing.

This may help to augment the retail sale, it added.

UberEATS was started in 2014 as a small delivery pilot in Los Angeles and was later launched as a separate mobile app in Toronto in December 2015.
