Uber Eats hails milestone for grocery and retail business in Germany as REWE taps delivery platform
REWE, a supermarket chain in Germany and the main brand of REWE Group, has announced a partnership with Uber Eats. In a LinkedIn post, Moritz Bernhard, GM Grocery & Retail - Central & Eastern Europe at Uber, said: “A big milestone for our grocery and retail business in Germany.”
He added: “I’m excited to share that we are launching a new partnership with REWE on Uber Eats. Starting this week in Frankfurt, users will have access to a broad selection of REWE products through the Uber and Uber Eats app. And we have big plans ahead: over the coming months, we’re bringing 60-minute grocery delivery to more than 100 cities across the country.”
He concluded: “A special thank you to E-commerce Director Clemens Uwe Bauer and the entire REWE team for the trust and great collaboration, and to everyone at Uber who worked hard to bring this partnership to life.”
REWE has also gone live with Wolt in Cologne and Just Eat in Hamburg and Jena.
2026 RTIH Innovation Awards
On demand delivery will be a key focus area at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards.
The awards are now open for entries and celebrate global retail technology innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.
Our winners will be revealed at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards Ceremony, taking place at The HAC in Central London on Wednesday, 4th November.
Check out our 2025 winners here.
Our 2025 hall of fame entrants were revealed during a sold out event which took place at The HAC on 16th October and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by award winning comedian, actress and writer Tiff Stevenson.
In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “This is the awards’ fifth year as a physical event. We started off with just 30 people at the South Place Hotel not far from here, then moved to London Bridge Hotel, then The Barbican, and last year RIBA’s HQ in the West End.”
“But I’m conscious of the fact that, to quote the legend that is Taylor Swift, You’re only as hot as your last hit, baby. So, this year we’ve moved to our biggest venue yet, and also pulled in our largest number of entries to date and broken attendance records.”
He added: “This year’s submissions have without doubt been our best yet. To quote one of the judges: The examples of innovative developments across both traditional and digital retail spaces were truly remarkable.”
Congratulations to our winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Tiff Stevenson, and all those who attended our 2025 gathering.
