Delivery firm Getir to quit UK with 1,500 jobs at risk

The company, once valued at £9.5bn, said it now only makes about 7 per cent of its revenue outside of Turkey after international growth plans stalled. The move is expected to bring about 1,500 job losses in Britain.

The announcement comes after speculation that Getir’s UK and European operations were struggling financially, following its decision to pull out of Italy and Spain last year.

The company signed a multi-million-pound three-year sponsorship deal with Tottenham Hotspur in 2021. It expires in the summer.
