Mon Feb 24 06:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Just Eat Takeaway.com Acquired by Prosus in $4.3 Billion Deal
**Amsterdam/London –** In a significant move in the European food delivery market, Dutch technology investor Prosus has agreed to acquire Just Eat Takeaway.com in an all-cash deal valued at approximately €4.1 billion ($4.3 billion). The offer represents a 63% premium on Just Eat’s Friday closing price, valuing its shares at €20.3 each.
Prosus, majority-owned by South Africa’s Naspers, already holds a substantial stake in Delivery Hero. The acquisition is expected to create a European tech leader, combining Prosus’ investment capabilities with Just Eat Takeaway.com’s strong brand presence across key European markets.
Fabricio Bloisi, CEO of Prosus and Naspers, expressed excitement about the deal, stating it would generate significant value for customers, drivers, partners, and shareholders. Jitse Groen, CEO and founder of Just Eat Takeaway.com, echoed this sentiment, highlighting Prosus’ support for their strategic plans and the potential for accelerated growth.
The acquisition comes after a challenging period for Just Eat Takeaway.com, whose stock price plummeted following the initial pandemic boom in online food delivery. The company recently sold its GrubHub arm at a significant loss and delisted from the London Stock Exchange to reduce administrative burdens. This deal marks a new chapter for the company, offering a potential resurgence under Prosus’ ownership.
