So we have built this rocketship. We call it Wolt. And were on a mission to make cities a better place to live with the help of technology. Our local commerce platform makes it easy for customers to order whatever they need on one app, for merchants to make additional sales, and for couriers to make meaningful earnings flexibly.
To enable this, Wolt develops a wide range of technologies from local commerce platform to retail software and financial solutions, as well as operates its own grocery stores under the brand Wolt Market. Wolt was founded in and joined forces with DoorDash in . DoorDash operates in 27 countries today, 25 of which are with the Wolt product and brand.
In Norway we are currently in 28 cities and we are just getting started on our growth journey. Food delivery was just the start. We dont want to just satisfy our customers hunger, but to deliver a wide variety of products and expand our platform to supermarkets, flowers, toys, books and other exciting products, all referred to as Retail.
