Uber Technologies Inc. said Wednesday that it will launch its Uber Eats food delivery platform in Germany over the next few weeks.

The gig-economy firm said it will launch the platform as part of a continuing investment in the country.

"Based on feedback from restaurants and communities, we believe there is strong demand for more food delivery services and a more competitive market," a spokesman for Uber said.
