TULUM, Mexico – The picturesque town of Tulum, a jewel of the Mexican Caribbean, is on the cusp of a significant transformation with the upcoming launch of Uber Eats. This service promises to revolutionize the way locals and tourists enjoy their favorite meals, offering unparalleled convenience at the touch of a button. Beyond the allure of easy access to diverse culinary delights, the introduction of Uber Eats heralds a new era of economic opportunities for the community, embracing the spirit of independence and flexibility that modern technology affords.
David Mínguez, Communications Manager for Uber Eats Mexico, emphasizes that the arrival of Uber Eats in Tulum is not just about expanding the delivery landscape. It symbolizes a profound contribution to the city’s economic growth. Prospective delivery partners have the flexibility to operate via motorcycle, bicycle, car, or even on foot—a nod to inclusivity and a testament to Uber Eats’ commitment to environmental sustainability. This initiative places Tulum alongside Mexico City as one of the few locales offering pedestrian delivery services, underscoring a dedication to diversity, equal opportunity, and the adaptability to meet society’s evolving needs.
The timing couldn’t be more opportune. Quintana Roo, the state home to Tulum, welcomed a record-breaking 20 million tourists in 2023. With the inauguration of the Tren Maya and a new international airport on the horizon, 2024 anticipates an even greater influx of visitors. This surge in tourism, coupled with the convenience and appeal of Uber Eats, spells a significant boost for local restaurants and aspiring delivery partners alike. The latter group, in particular, stands to benefit from potentially lucrative earnings, with promotional rates reaching up to 100 MXN per delivery.
Mínguez shares an insightful statistic: over the past five years, more than 150,000 Tulum residents and visitors have sought to use Uber Eats, highlighting the community’s eager anticipation for the service. “We’re thrilled to soon make our mark in Tulum, where the positive impact on countless families will undoubtedly enhance their quality of life through technology,” Mínguez concludes.
For those interested in joining the Uber Eats delivery network in Tulum, further information and the activation process are accessible through their website.
As Tulum stands on the brink of this exciting new chapter, the anticipation is palpable among its residents and the many visitors who grace its shores. Uber Eats’ foray into this vibrant community is more than a mere expansion—it’s a gateway to new possibilities, fostering economic growth and offering a sustainable model for the future.
