Who we are

At Getir, we make life convenient by delivering thousands of goods from milk to diapers to newspapers, in a matter of minutes, every day. The original pioneer of the 10-minute grocery delivery (we started in Istanbul way back in 2015), we now carry out over 200,000 orders a day.

Besides our all-encompassing assortment, what we ultimately provide is the most essential thing that every human being on this earth needs: time.

Today we're older, bigger, and in many countries outside of Turkey (the UK, Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Germany, France to name just a few).

We like to think of ourselves as a 70% technology, 20% retail, and 10% logistics company. It’s only by building excellent technology that we were able to make good on our promise of 10-minute delivery six years ago. We are growing fast and looking for talented, motivated professionals to add to our team.
