February 6, 2021 Ryukyu Shimpo
On February 4, the food ordering and delivery platform Uber Eats announced it will expand its service to parts of Okinawa City and Uruma City beginning February 18.
The platform has partnered with approximately 45 restaurants in the two cities. Customers may order a variety of foods for delivery, including Japanese cuisine, ethnic cuisines, and standard menu items such as hamburgers and curry. Delivery services will be available between 9 a.m. and midnight but will vary depending on the restaurant.
Uber Eats first launched its services in Okinawa Prefecture last August and currently serves the northern part of Naha’s city center and the southern part of Urasoe City. The expansion brings the total service area to four cities.
Deliveries to Okinawa City and Uruma City are only available from restaurants within the same area. A spokesperson for Uber Eats said, “We are enthusiastic about further expanding the delivery area [in Okinawa].”
