Uber Eats with a focus on markets 10301g
According to the information, the service will now focus its delivery activities in supermarkets, wholesalers and specialized stores. Supermarket deliveries will be made through the new partner Cornershop, which already operates in more than 100 Brazilian cities. In addition, activities such as Uber Flash, for fast deliveries and the UberDirect, used by stores to deliver directly to customers, are maintained.
Currently, the delivery market is composed of iFood, Rappi e Uber Eats, respectively in order of most used in the country. O iFood, for example, is present in 70% of these activities in Brazil, and with the departure of Uber Eats from the business, now Rappi will become its direct competitor.

In addition to competition reasons, there is yet another possible reason that may have made Uber Eats stop serving restaurants: the new law on delivery safety. Sanctioned this Wednesday, January 5th, the law obliges companies to hire Safety of accidents to couriers, which cover permanent or temporary disability, personal accidents or even death. If the delivery person contracts the new coronavirus, the company should still be responsible for offering financial assistance for 15 days, with a possible extension of two more periods of 15 days.
