Just Eat Takeaway considers selling US arm Grubhub as orders fall

After Covid lockdown boom, orders dropped by 1% to 264.2m in first three months of 2022

Just Eat Takeaway is considering selling off its Grubhub arm after reporting a decline in orders compared with bumper levels during Covid lockdowns.

The online food ordering company said orders dropped by 1% to 264.2m in the first three months of 2022 as it struggled when trying to match the pandemic-boosted levels from a year earlier, when many cafes, restaurants and hospitality venues remained closed for several months.
