They are competing here in Berlin, against DeliveryHero (which bought foodora and other smaller deliveries). They are both the same, except the restaurant coverage. From that I can assume they have a better b2b model. Wolt prices are higher, even though DeliveryHero prices are already higher, including the distance extra payment for me it makes it stupid to order. I understand that the drivers get paid more and it is obvious, but as a consumer to pay 30% more for a delivery, is insane. Back in the day you would get FREE delivery from restaurants and even extras. Being corona lockdown I prefer to walk and get my food.

This is not a judgement against Wolt, but against this whole delivery system.

They are not competing in Berlin against Delivery Hero. Delivery Hero exited Germany and sold Foodora, Pizza.de AND Lieferheld.de to Lieferando: who promptly shut those 3 platforms down leaving only Lieferando.

So now Wolt is competing in Berlin in takeaway food market against only Lieferando, and seeing as they only started last year, Google Trends suggests they are getting a reasonable % of the market already, somewhere around 12% of Berlin online food delivery:

also that lieferando delivers a pathetic user experience (too many bugs and poor UX decisions to list here). I would love to see Wolt take over the Berlin/German market.

DeliveryHero's primary market is S.E. Asia, Pakistan, Bangladesh etc, and they don't have any sales in Berlin. Also Wolt don't even operate outside the Kreuzkölln bubble, I've never heard of it till now, and I don't understand why people are fawning over Wolt operating in Berlin.

> why people are fawning over Wolt operating in Berlin

mainly the shameful experience of Lieferando, and the several months of total monopoly after their acquisition of the Delivery Hero brands. The antitrust organization really let customers down on that one.

> Kreuzkölln bubble

one that covers from Hauptbahnhof to ~half of PB, but who's counting...

definitely covers more than what you're stating, but granted, if you're in Charlottenburg you may not have noticed them.

They’re leaving large swathes of Mitte, schöneberg, Tiergarten etc. that’s why maybe
