Deliveroo unveils plans to pull out of Spain in wake of ‘rider law’

Delivery firm says disproportionate level of investment' would be needed to achieve top-level market position

Deliveroo has announced plans to pull out of Spain only months after the government promised a law to give gig economy workers greater employment rights.

Deliveroo, which is headquartered and listed in London, said remaining in Spain would require too much investment compared with its other markets, given the scale of its operations in the country.
