It is possible that Uber Eats delivery may do better in Nigeria for helping people shop grocery than actually delivering cooked meals. Of course, for standards and quality, it means the natural platforms will be SPAR, Shoprite and other high-end supermarkets, and not open markets which typically lack standards. Without those standards, it will be hard to use delivery 3rd parties for groceries.

Uber is expanding its food-delivery arm into groceries, after that side of the business marked a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing set of earnings. The Uber Eats revenue rose 72% year-on-year, compared to 14% for the business overall, which is losing more money than ever.
