Gopuff implements GoStock Equity Programme in UK
Rapid delivery firm Gopuff reports that its GoStock Equity Programme is currently rolling out in the UK.
Details of the initiative were shared via an internal memo issued last week – an excerpt of which is as follows:
“As part of our commitment to the UK market, we believe it’s essential that all Gopuff employees share in the ownership of the business.”
“With that, we are implementing the GoStock Equity Programme in the UK. With this new programme, our eligible frontline employees and workers will receive equity and an ownership stake of the company.
Approximately 1,400 employees and workers will receive equity and an ownership stake of the company.
Gopuff says that the move is “a direct acknowledgement of our continued efforts and underscores our commitment to the UK, a priority market which has experienced significant growth (revenue increasing at a 30% compound monthly rate and x10 order growth since launch).”
