It’s Sunday evening. My stomach is growling and hurting like mad. I’m seriously starving. But I can’t muster up the energy to cook. To make it even worse my lacking willingness to call a nearby restaurant to order a life-saving meal represents another factor which could cost me my life.
Just kidding. All these problems are absolutely irrelevant. I mean, we are living in an era in which our food is delivered to our homes after only a few clicks. As someone who orders food online with an unprecedented passion and conviction I can confidently say that online delivery services are true saviors which make everyday life even easier than it already is. The heroic character of this special service is something one of the German and global market leaders in this certain field of course didn’t fail to miss. Since 2011, the company Lieferheld which translates to “Delivery Hero”, founded by Niklas Östberg and Fabian Siegel, has been revolutionizing the eating behavior and culture of thousands of metropolitans. That’s exactly why taking a look at this special hero which can easily take on Batman and co. is absolutely worth it.
During my researches I stumbled across many facts which could also be quite surprising for you. At first glance, the company based in Berlin seemed to be an enterprise exclusively operating locally in Germany. In fact however, Lieferheld only represents a daughter company of Delivery Hero Holding GmbH, a business offering the same services as in Germany on a global base in 13 additional countries. In fact, Niklas Östberg and Fabian Siegel took the first entrepreneurial steps beyond German ground in Australia, Mexico and Russia in the year 2011. Only a year after, they founded the German counterpart Lieferheld which turned out to be a great success. Today, Delivery Hero namely draws 25% of its total turnover from Germany, which doesn’t mean that the concept doesn’t appeal to rather exotic appearing countries like China , South Korea and India. Altogether, more than 55 000 partner restaurants make use of the services of Delivery Hero worldwide, giving it the status of a real global player. An incredible selection of restaurants and cuisines opens up a world of pure indulgence and pleasure to you, which is as capable of fulfilling your desire for high-quality sushi as it is able to satisfy your hunger for something heartier like burgers and kebab. Different paying methods including Paypal and a mobile App, which doesn’t stand second to the internet page, represent the icing of this delicious comfort.
This concept is genius. It’s not only the urban couch potato who is aware of this fact. But countless renowned investors, too, acknowledge the potential of this Delivery Hero. In January, 2014, Insight Venture Partners equipped Delivery Hero with a breathtaking capital of $88 million. In total, the pot of funded money of the enterprise holds an amount of $110 million, which even persuades experts to speculate about a possible stock market launch. Well, whatsoever, I will stick to Lieferheld and keep on ordering my beloved Sushi and Chicken Tikka Masala on there. By the way, right now you can get 25% off your order on Lieferheld. That’s a deal you can’t miss!
