DoorDash struck a deal to acquire British food-delivery company Deliveroo for around 2.9 billion pounds ($3.86 billion) following an initial approach last month, in a move aimed at increasing DoorDash’s global presence.

DoorDash has agreed to buy the UK-based food delivery service in a deal worth around $3.9 billion. It adds nine new countries to DoorDash’s global reach, which will now stand at over 40 countries and 50 million monthly active users.

DoorDash Inc. has agreed to buy UK-based food-delivery platform Deliveroo Plc for an equity value of £2.9 billion ($3.9 billion), as the US company targets smaller providers in a push into more overseas markets.
