The rapid delivery app has signed a 10-year lease on more than 18,000sq ft of office space in Maker, one of the two new office blocks on the Riverside development.

The deal will see colleagues move to Maker from the company’s Rainton Meadows base.

Just Eat arrived in the North East in 2021, and research from the Centre for Economics and Business Research shows that the company contributes £20.8million to the local Sunderland economy from its operations in the city.

The firm said it supports a further £31.7million of value through the impact of its supply chains and spending of workers in the wider economy.
