Deliveroo plans London listing

World Business Report

Available for over a year

The food delivery firm Deliveroo plans a London listing expected to value it at $7bn. Anna MacDonald is a fund manager at Amati Global Investors in Edinburgh, and talks us through the significance of the company choosing London for its stock market flotation. And we consider the long-term future of the food delivery model, once coronavirus restrictions are lifted, with Peter Backman, who is a consultant in the restaurant sector. Also in the programme, it is International Women's Day, and this year the theme is 'Choose to Challenge'. The BBC's Nisha Patel has been talking with three women on three different continents, who are doing just that, challenging preconceptions and prejudice. (Picture: A Deliveroo delivery rider.
