September 25, 2023: On Friday, Consolidations in Singapore’s highly saturated food delivery sector could be on the horizon, though it is unlikely that any one platform will eventually dominate, analysts said.
Foodpanda, the Singapore-headquartered food delivery service, has announced its recent round of layoffs as it seeks to simplify operations and become more agile. This marks the third round of releases for the company, following previous job cuts in February and September of last year. Other food delivery outlets like Grab and Deliveroo have also reduced their headcounts this year.
Foodpanda’s parent company, Delivery Hero, is reportedly in preliminary discussions with potential buyers to sell part of its Southeast Asian meals delivery business.

Grab currently holds the largest market share in Southeast Asia’s food delivery demand, with Foodpanda and Gojek following behind.
