Getir to cut roles amid global restructuring

Getir, the ultrafast grocery delivery company, has announced a global restructuring to significantly increase “operational efficiency”, with plans to reduce its team and lay off almost 2,500 employees across its markets.

The Getir network currently consists of roughly 23,000 people across five countries including couriers, pickers, and office employees.

Following the restructure, Getir will continue to operate in Turkey, the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, and the US.

In a statement, Getir said: “Decisions like these are never taken lightly. However, Getir is determined to do right by all employees affected by the process in line with its values and in full compliance with local laws.

“Getir is very grateful to all colleagues for their hard work, dedication, and significant contributions to the business. The company remains fully committed to the future of the industry it pioneered eight years ago and will continue to lead it in the future.”
