Carlton Football Club is thrilled to announce an exciting new partnership with iconic brands Uber and UberEATS.
The partnership will see Carlton collaborate with the ride sharing and food delivery companies to provide a number of benefits and exclusive offers to Blues members.
Carlton CEO Steven Trigg said the Club was proud to be the first within the AFL to partner directly with both Uber and UberEATS.
"We're delighted both Uber and Uber Eats have come on board with the Carlton Football Club in a unique partnership that is a first of its kind within the AFL," Trigg said.
"Our valued members will benefit from this exciting partnership over the coming months and we're excited by the alignment of two strong and dynamic brands between both Carlton and Uber."
With a range of cuisines available at varying prices, UberEATS provides an easy option to have the food you love delivered at your request, while Uber offers a flexible and rewarding commute option 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Uber Victoria General Manager Lucas Groeneveld said the company was proud to join forces with the Blues to make its mark on the AFL and the broader Carlton community.

"We're thrilled to celebrate the local Carlton community in our partnership with Carlton Football Club,” Groeneveld said.
“Footy is what makes Melbourne tick and we’re passionate about being woven into the fabric of the city.
“Some of Uber’s busiest times in Melbourne are before and after AFL games and we look forward to working with Carlton and the AFL to improve the pick-up and drop-off experience.”
To launch the partnership, UberEATS, in conjunction with the Carlton Football Club, will be distributing $20,000 worth of UberEATS vouchers to selected Carlton members.
UberEATS Melbourne General Manager Jodie Auster was excited by the scope of the partnership to benefit loyal Blues members and give back to the suburb of Carlton.
"UberEATS is proud to support local Carlton restaurants that make the Melbourne food scene the melting pot of diversity it is today,” Auster said.
“We look forward to building a long partnership with the Blues and are excited to see the loyal Carlton supporter base benefit via UberEATS vouchers.”
Uber and UberEATS now become gold partners of the Carlton Football Club.
To celebrate, Uber and UberEATS have a special offer for Carlton supporters who are yet to experience the services offered by Uber and UberEATS.
