Wolt

Wolt is a Helsinki-based technology company founded in 2014 that develops a local commerce platform connecting people ordering food, groceries and other goods with the businesses selling them and the couriers delivering them. The platform brings together real-time logistics optimization, retail software and financial solutions, and serves restaurants, retailers, couriers and customers as a connected ecosystem. Its core offering, the Wolt Platform, operates in over 1,000 cities across more than 30 countries, with the Wolt brand and product present in 28 of them.

Beyond the marketplace, the company operates Wolt Market, its own grocery stores run under the Wolt Market brand, and Wolt Drive, a last-mile delivery service offered to businesses. Technical work spans local commerce platform development, last-mile delivery technology and payments and financial solutions for merchants. Industry verticals served include food delivery, grocery and retail, last-mile logistics and urban delivery infrastructure.

Wolt joined forces with DoorDash in 2022 while retaining the Wolt brand and product. The company describes its mission as bringing joy, simplicity and earnings to the neighbourhoods of the world, with Nordic roots and a global expansion mindset, and an emphasis on building city infrastructure that makes urban life easier and more convenient.
