Project description

When food delivery platform Deliveroo pulled out of Australia it cited a tough business environment, but there are suspicions on the part of observers such as academics and the Transport Workers� Union that the company withdrew because of a court case that challenged its contract work model. Deliveroo claimed that there is too much competition in the on-demand food delivery sector in Australia, said Dr Greig Taylor, a lecturer in the School of Management and Governance at UNSW Business School. �It certainly is a tightly contested (some might say �saturated�) market. The company argues that it just doesn�t make enough profit in its Australian subsidiary to continue,� he said.
