Retail Disrupted · 2026-07-02 · 22 min
A third of shoppers now expect grocery delivery within two hours. That's a huge shift in customer expectations - and one that Wolt is well placed to meet. The Helsinki-based delivery platform (owned by DoorDash / sister company to Deliveroo) is now the #1 delivery app outside China and among the top 10 online grocers in Europe. Marianne Vikkula, Head of Wolt, joins Natalie Berg to unpack the strategy behind one of Europe's leading local commerce platforms. And it's no longer just about takeaways and groceries - retail now makes up more than 25% of Wolt's global sales. Marianne shares how Wolt+ has evolved from a subscription that waived delivery fees to a lifestyle membership program, why baskets are a third larger when they include a promotional item, and why the average Wolt order travels under three kilometres.
