BERLIN (Reuters) -Delivery Hero, the food delivery company that spans more than 50 countries, is relaunching operations in its home city of Berlin as a first step towards winning back the German market it quit over two years ago.

The 10-year-old e-commerce company, a constituent of Germany's DAX blue-chip index, is going back to its roots after a growth spurt in Asia culminated in its recent $6.9 billion takeover of South Korea's Woowa.
