AMSTERDAM - Shares in Just Eat-Takeaway, the company forged by Dutch online service Takeaway’s $7.8 billion acquisition of British food deliverer Just Eat, commence trading on the London Stock Exchange on Monday. Takeaway won the bidding for Just Eat with an all-share offer after battle with investment company Prosus , which was offering cash.
Even as the shares have now been combined, the Dutch firm must now wait for a final approval from the Competition and Markets Authority before it will be able to merge operations and brands.Our Standards:
Before it was named Just Eat, it's name was I own this domain, lol. The Danish founder of Just Eat, Jesper Buch, said 'oo' was cool in domain names at rise of internet, like G'oo'gle, Yah'oo', Faceb.. He merged with others in 2001, and named it Just Eat.
