Published on 02/03/2022 08:00:00

If you’re a food-loving, business-minded person thinking about starting your own food delivery franchise, you’re probably exploring a variety of different options. As you do, you’re likely to consider delivery giant Just Eat, a hugely well-recognised name in the field of to-the-doorstep dinner. But does Just Eat franchise in the UK, and can you become a franchisee with the profitable company?


The online food ordering and delivery platforms market in the UK is worth almost £3 billion [IBISWorld]. In 2022, customers massively value the convenience offered to them by apps like Just Eat and Deliveroo, and by all the delicious food takeaway franchises that partner with them. 

Does Just Eat franchise in the UK?

If starting your own delivery franchise with a Just Eat business sounds perfect to you, you’ll be disappointed to discover that no, Just Eat doesn’t franchise in the UK. Instead, Just Eat offers existing restaurants and cafes the opportunity to become a Partner with the app and expand their capacity to bring in revenue. In the words of David, one of Just Eat’s Partners, “The Partner Perks system is really really good. It’s a great way that Just Eat have sat down and thought, how can we add value to our product? It’s a win-win deal.”

​​​​​​​We’re a leading global food platform serving millions of customers across 25 countries. With over 15,000 employees worldwide, we power a vast array of much-loved local brands, with the mission of empowering every food moment for our customers.

The history of Just Eat

Just Eat was originally founded in 2001 in Denmark, and launched in the UK five years later in 2006. The merged company, Just Eat Takeaway.com, came into being in January 2020, connecting Just Eat’s success with the success of Takeaway.com (founded in 2000 in The Netherlands). There are now over 580,000 restaurants on Just Eat, offering consumers a huge variety of easily accessible food choices.

In the words of Just Eat, “Both com­pa­nies were start­ed by ambi­tious entre­pre­neurs who grew their busi­ness­es to be the num­ber one food deliv­ery play­ers in their home mar­kets and many oth­ers around the world. Today, Just Eat Take​away​.com is the lead­ing glob­al online food deliv­ery mar­ket­place out­side China. We haven’t stopped there. Our mis­sion is to be the best food deliv­ery com­pa­ny on the planet.”

We utilise a hybrid mod­el which builds on our mar­ket­place her­itage (where restau­rants do their own deliv­ery) with logis­tics capa­bil­i­ty (for select restau­rants with­out their own deliv­ery capa­bil­i­ties). This mod­el ensures con­sumers have the widest pos­si­ble vari­ety of restau­rants to order from.
