international presence with the acquisition of Polish portal
pyszne.pl.
DGAP-Media / 19.03.2012 / 09:53
---------------------------------------------------------------------
- The yourdelivery Group is now offering online ordering through over
6,500 delivery services in five countries across Europe
- The knowhow and partner-network of pyszne.pl, Poland's second largest
portal for online food orders based on the number of delivery services,
opens the Polish market to yourdelivery
- The goal is to become market leader within continental Europe
The yourdelivery group, which includes online food ordering portals in
Germany (www.lieferando.de), Austria (www.lieferando.at), Switzerland
(www.lieferando.ch), France (www.taxiresto.fr) and Poland (www.smakuje.pl)
is set to expand the Polish division of its business with the acquisition
of local competitor pyszne.pl (www.pyszne.pl). The takeover of the second
largest portal for online food orders in Poland (based on the number of
delivery services) continues the yourdelivery Group's international
expansion and broadens its network of contractors. smakuje.pl will merge
with pyszne.pl, increasing the portal's number of contractors to 400. Users
in several European countries are now able to easily and conveniently order
sushi, pizza and other meals from over 6,500 delivery services. In Germany,
lieferando.de is already the provider offering the most delivery services.
'The yourdelivery group is the ideal partner to provide us with the
necessary financial and strategic resources that will enable us to become
market leader in Poland,' says Arkadiusz Krupicz, co-founder of pyszne.pl.
The yourdelivery Group strengthens its own position with the acquisition of
pyszne.pl and the expansion of its delivery services network, and is
heading towards continental Europe market leadership within the
delivery-service-platform sector.
'The acquisition of pyszne.pl is very important for us to quickly establish
ourselves in Poland and therefore advance our internationalization
strategy. After our short-term goal of market leadership in Germany, we
will seek to achieve the same in continental Europe,' explains Jörg Gerbig,
co-founder and CEO of lieferando.de.
Since its inception, the young company has already passed several
milestones on its path towards continental European market leadership. In
addition to last year's acquisition of competitor eat-star and its
expansion into Austria, Switzerland and France, it received a fourth round
of financing in July, meaning the yourdelivery Group now has a total of 6
million Euros in growth capital from new and existing investors.
