Uber Technologies Inc. said it’s in discussions with European supermarkets to roll out a grocery delivery service as rivals Deliveroo and Just Eat Plc move to compete with the likes of Amazon.com Inc. in the field.

The ride-hailing company has spoken with the U.K.’s second-biggest grocer, J Sainsbury Plc, according to people familiar with the situation. The supermarket operator this month announced it was partnering with Deliveroo to bring hot pizza to homes in four British cities.
