Berlin-headquartered 'Delivery Hero', which owns the popular food delivery services in Kuwait 'Talabat' and 'Carriage' is planning to merge the operation of both in Kuwait.

According to news report, Delivery Hero has decided to integrate its operations across all its markets in the Gulf, with Carriage gradually getting absorbed by Talabat and other Delivery Hero brands in the region.

“The customers can continue to place orders from restaurant partners through the Carriage app as normal. This was purely a business decision, and we would like to thank Carriage employees for their hard work and commitment,” a statement published by menabytes says.

According to the report, the Carriage’s operations will be absorbed by Talabat. Talabat will be the only Delivery Hero brand serving these markets.

Carriage that was started in Kuwait by a group of four entrepreneurs in early 2016 was acquired by Delivery Hero in May 2017 for $100 million.

the report also says that the restaurant partners of Carriage will be migrated to Talabat. However the fate of employees working under Carriage is not clear, the menabytes reported.
