RNS Number : 9401W Tortilla Mexican Grill PLC 17 March 2026
Tortilla Mexican Grill plc
("Tortilla", the "Group" or the "Company")
New Multi‑Aggregator Delivery Partnership
17 March 2026
Tortilla Mexican Grill PLC ("Tortilla" or the "Group"), the largest
fast-casual Mexican restaurant group in Europe, is pleased to announce that it
has entered into a new multi‑aggregator delivery arrangement, strengthening
the Group's delivery proposition and expanding customer reach across its UK
estate.
Key Highlights
· Tortilla has entered into a new multi-aggregator delivery
arrangement, partnering with Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat across its UK
estate
· The arrangement broadens customer reach and improves service
availability by operating across multiple delivery channels simultaneously,
reducing reliance on any single platform
· The renewed partnership with Deliveroo builds on an established
working relationship, providing access to Deliveroo's customer base,
technology and marketing capabilities
· The Board expects the new delivery arrangements to contribute
positively to Group revenue in the current financial year
· The agreement supports Tortilla's broader strategy of balancing
customer convenience, margin discipline and operational control as delivery
continues to grow as a complementary channel
As part of this arrangement, Tortilla will once again be partnering with
Deliveroo, alongside its existing relationships with Uber Eats and Just Eat,
enabling the Group to broaden customer reach, improve service availability and
optimise delivery performance across multiple channels.
The arrangement is expected to be rolled out across a significant proportion
of the Group's UK company‑owned restaurants, enhancing availability and
convenience for customers in key delivery catchments.
The new agreement supports Tortilla's strategy of maintaining a flexible,
multi‑platform delivery model, allowing the Group to balance customer
choice, operational resilience and commercial discipline, while avoiding
reliance on any single delivery partner. This approach is designed to
maximise incremental demand while preserving margin discipline, operational
control and the Group's ability to adapt to changing customer behaviours
across channels.
The renewed partnership with Deliveroo builds on the Group's established
working relationship with the platform and provides access to Deliveroo's
customer base, technology and marketing capabilities, supporting continued
growth in delivery sales where this channel remains strategically and
economically attractive.
The agreement has been entered into on standard commercial terms. The Board
believes that the new delivery arrangements will enhance Tortilla's ability to
serve customers conveniently, while maintaining appropriate control over
pricing, promotions and operational standards, and is expected to drive
incremental delivery sales in the current and future financial years, where
the channel remains strategically and economically attractive.
Brandon Stephens, CEO Tortilla Mexican Grill plc, commented:
"Delivery remains an important and complementary channel for Tortilla, and
this new multi‑aggregator arrangement reflects our disciplined approach to
accessing incremental demand while retaining operational and commercial
control. We are pleased to be partnering with Deliveroo again, building on our
existing relationship and leveraging their platform alongside Uber Eats and
Just Eat. This approach allows us to serve customers more conveniently, while
ensuring delivery continues to support the long‑term economics and brand
strength of the business."
Rob Harris, Chief Revenue Officer, Deliveroo, commented:
"We are excited to welcome Tortilla back to Deliveroo and we look forward to
partnering with Tortilla to achieve their growth ambitions. It's a
partnership that's about more than delivery; it's about reaching new customers
and building a loyal customer base together through innovative initiatives and
offering great value to Deliveroo Plus subscribers."
