Mobile delivery platform giant Just Eat processed more than 17 million orders in the UK during December.

On Christmas Day alone, more than 145,000 orders were placed, with grocery deliveries accounting for 40% as shoppers scrambled for forgotten essentials.

Demand then shifted on New Year’s Eve, with prosecco and champagne orders up 300%, before customers pivoted to healthier choices on New Year’s Day, driving a 132% surge in coconut water and sports drinks.
