Deliveroo challenger Quiqup has raised £5m ($6.3 million) in extra funding to expand its presence in the Middle East.

London-headquartered Quiqup, which was founded in 2014, has secured partnerships to launch one-hour delivery services in the UK with supermarkets such as Tesco.

The new funding brings Quiqup’s total raised to more than £25m, having secured funding from Jobi Capital in 2017.
