Finnish competitor to Uber Eats, Foodora and Deliveroo raises the biggest funding round in Finnish startup history. The company has market share in Europe, Japan and Israel, and is trying to become an “everything app” for ordering groceries, retail, etc. https://t.co/gE4MEPh50y

“We believe that the future of how people buy Nike shoes is a few taps on Wolt and some 30 minutes later you get any pair of shoes brought to your door. This is what we strive to make into a reality with our team at Wolt.”@mikikuusi on Wolt's expansion:https://t.co/BVgHal5Oz3

I use this app nearly daily. Even though it's 30% more expensive than any competitor delivering from the same restaurants. why?

1. outstanding ordering/delivery UX
2. *killer* customer support UX
everything else is the same https://t.co/MXpGVpvYZv
Third-tier markets are getting a better delivery user experience than first-tier because the competitor playing in them @woltapp values quality over quantity https://t.co/at7OB9Eb3P

スウェーデンの企業「Wolt」が巨額の資金調達。クイックデリバリー(フードのみならず家電、生鮮、洋服など)を、人口密度が低い・小さな都市でも、配送効率の高いオペレーションが組めているとのこと。多くの企業が苦戦していたので、そのマジックがとてもきになります。https://t.co/ItWjUHAuks

The Wolt team executed flawlessly, but its growth was only possible IMO because Uber wasted so much time & money pursuing autonomous vehicle fantasy tech and ignored UberEats expansion. No reason UberEats couldnt have bulldozed these secondary markets https://t.co/S5r8jmkhdm
