The Future of Food Delivery in KSA: Exploring the $10B Market and Its Leading Players
In Saudi Arabia, HungerStation revolutionized the market in 2012. Eleven years later, the Saudi food delivery market is worth $10 billion, surpassing Canada’s projected $8.1 billion market in 2024, despite similar populations. The Kingdom boasts one of the highest average revenues per user globally at $208.
Since 2019, local foodtech startups in the Kingdom have attracted over $555 million in funding, with food delivery startups snapping up almost half of that total. Nana, a grocery delivery startup, is the most funded foodtech startup in the country, having raised over $200 million. Successful exits, like Jahez’s IPO in 2022 and HungerStation's acquisition by Delivery Hero, have further boosted investor confidence in the sector.
