Unprecedented Partnership Between Uber and iFood Will Allow Rides and Meals to Be Ordered in a Single App, Starting with Brazilian Cities in the Second Semester

Uber and iFood have formed a partnership that will integrate the services of both platforms. The announcement was made this week and promises to change the way users access deliveries and transportation.

With this innovation, it will be possible to order an Uber ride directly from the iFood app and make orders on iFood without leaving the Uber app.

The goal of the partnership is to make life easier for consumers. It will no longer be necessary to switch between apps to order food, shop at grocery stores, or request a ride.

According to Dara Khosrowshahi, CEO of Uber, half of users already frequently use both services. For him, the integration helps consolidate mobility and deliveries in one place.

Diego Barreto, CEO of iFood, said the partnership could also generate more demand for registered restaurants, pharmacies, and grocery stores. In addition, there is an expectation that opportunities for delivery workers and partner drivers from both platforms will increase.

The integration will be carried out in phases. It begins in the second semester, in some cities in Brazil. Afterwards, it will be expanded to the entire country.

In the Uber app, the “Delivery” tab will be updated with iFood’s offerings. Meanwhile, in the iFood app, a tab called “Mobility” will be created, through which users can request rides with Uber.

For now, the subscription programs remain separate. Uber One and iFood Clube continue without changes. However, the companies are considering launching joint initiatives in the future.

The Uber Direct service for businesses and Uber Flash for package delivery continue to operate normally. iFood will also maintain its logistics service for partners and the On Demand service aimed at those who operate outside the platform.

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

Júlia Pimentel, an 11-year-old from Minas Gerais, independently invented a new formula to calculate the square root using simple addition and multiplication, and her method was published in one of the most important mathematical scientific journals in Brazil.

They planted a sea of eucalyptus to produce cellulose, but the monoculture turned into a green desert, dried up springs and rivers, and pushed families out of regions in Minas Gerais and Bahia.

The Atacama Desert, the driest place on Earth, was covered in flowers and turned into a colorful carpet with more than 200 species in the phenomenon called “desert bloom,” when atypical rains awaken seeds that had remained dormant in the soil for many years.

Without her own home and pressured by rent, a 25-year-old bought a small 15-meter boat, gradually renovated the interior by herself, transformed the interior with paint, new flooring, a larger bathroom, and started living on the canals, paying much less per month.

A city has planted 880,000 trees and 2.5 million smaller plants since 2016, reduced the temperature by up to 3°C in some areas, and won an international award for using vegetation to combat urban heat in Colombia.

Heir bought 23,000 degraded acres in the Scottish Highlands, fenced the area, planted nearly 1 million native trees, and transformed empty mountains into a forest officially recognized after meeting 15 evaluation criteria over 20 years.
