UberEATS will face competition from brands including FoodOnClick, 24.ae and Deliveroo, a British firm that transports takeaways across Dubai. The facility is already offered in many American cities, plus Singapore, England, Canada, France and Australia. Amazon recently announced it was entering the increasingly crowded food delivery market by launching a similar app in London.
