Deliveroo has officially launched its food delivery service in Scunthorpe, with 25% off orders for customers paying with Visa over the next four weeks.

Lithuanian restaurant Klumpe and popular fast food favourites KFC and Pizza Hut are among a list of over 20 restaurants available to order from.

Deliveroo launched in the Lincolnshire town on Thursday, February 27. The company aims to partner with 30 eateries and takeaways by the end of the year.

The discount offer is available from participating restaurants displaying the ‘25% off’ tag only and a £20 minimum spend applies. The offer ends on April 5, 2020.

Deliveroo will also be looking for up to 50 people in Scunthorpe to become riders.

Harrison Foster, Deliveroo’s Regional Director in the UK, said: “Launching in Scunthorpe is a key milestone for Deliveroo. Scunthorpe has a thriving foodie community and a wide range of restaurants, so we’re excited to connect them.

“We look forward to working with our new restaurant partners to reach a new customer base and expand their businesses. Deliveroo will also create work for up to 50 local riders and we are thrilled to offer a flexible role to the community.”
