Uber is closing alcohol delivery service Drizly three years after acquistion


Uber is shutting down alcohol delivery service Drizly, three years after the cab-hailing company acquired it for $1.1 billion.

“We’re grateful to the Drizly team for their many contributions to the growth of the BevAlc delivery category as the original industry pioneer.” Last year, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) ordered Drizly to delete all personal data that wasn’t required to provide service. The company aims the focus on alcohol delivery through Uber Eats, where it claims to have doubled the business in the category globally.
