About

In April 2024, Turkish instant delivery company Getir announced a major strategic retreat, exiting the U.S., U.K., and European markets to focus solely on its home country. This decision impacts over 6,000 jobs across those closing operations, a significant portion of its workforce which numbered around 32,000 a year prior. The move marks a dramatic reversal for the once high-flying "quick commerce" startup, valued near $12 billion, as it and rivals like Flink face severe industry downturn. Getir cited the need to concentrate financial resources on Turkey and secured new investment to extend its runway, ending an aggressive global expansion that included acquisitions like Gorillas and FreshDirect.
