Delivery Hero expects revenue to grow between 14% and 16% in 2026 as the German food-delivery company continues expanding in Asia and the Middle East. The company reported full-year 2025 adjusted EBITDA of 903 million euros ($1.04 billion), up 30% from the prior year. Revenue reached 14.8 billion euros, while gross merchandise value climbed to 49.2 billion euros.

This growth comes as Delivery Hero invests heavily in emerging markets to maintain market share and attract higher-value customers. The company projects gross merchandise value to rise between 8% and 10% on a like-for-like basis in 2026. These expansion efforts in Asia and the Middle East and North Africa regions have become central to Delivery Hero's strategy as it seeks to outpace competitors in high-growth markets.

Delivery Hero's strong performance reflects the broader food delivery sector's recovery and expansion. The company's ability to generate higher earnings while investing in growth markets positions it well against rivals like Uber Eats and DoorDash. With adjusted earnings expected between 910 million euros and 960 million euros next year, Delivery Hero demonstrates how strategic market investments can drive sustainable growth in the competitive food delivery landscape.
