Getir unveils Europe's largest store network for ultra-fast food deliveries

Getir and Gorillas' new combined store network in Germany, the UK and the Netherlands will be the largest in the European Quick Commerce industry

13-Apr-2023 - Germany

Quick commerce pioneer Getir, which operates in nine countries, today announced the launch of Europe's largest store network for ultra-fast grocery delivery. The combined Getir and Gorillas store network will serve customers in Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and the US. This is the current status of a rapid and efficient integration process between the two companies that began with Getir's acquisition of Gorillas in late 2022. Today's announcement also marks an important milestone for the quick commerce industry as a whole, creating the largest store network for ultra-fast grocery delivery in Europe.

"Since the acquisition, we have had a clear goal: Getir and Gorillas - stronger and better together. Today's announcement demonstrates how leveraging the synergies of both organizations can not only result in the largest and most efficient branch network for ultra-fast grocery delivery, but also significantly improve the product range and service quality for our customers," said Turancan Salur, regional managing director of Getir. "It is also a testament to the great work of our team, which was able to achieve this milestone in just a few months," Salur added.

The merging of the Getir and Gorillas store networks is currently taking place in markets where both brands operate. It will take several months to be fully completed. This process may also involve the combination of individual stores. The merging of the store network will be accompanied by a number of measures, including the offer to deploy employees in other nearby locations.

Top priority: providing customers with the best possible service

A first-class customer experience

Both the Getir and Gorillas brands and their respective apps will continue to coexist and operate. Customers in Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and the US (New York City) will be able to order through both apps as usual, but will now benefit from a stronger and more efficient store network regardless of the app used when ordering.

Whenever a customer orders via either the Getir or Gorillas app, the entire combined courier fleet is available to them. The first available courier, either from Getir or Gorillas, delivers the order. This allows for seamless deliveries and an overall improved shopping experience.

A range that combines the best of both worlds

Getir and Gorillas customers can now also benefit from an improved and combined assortment of around 2,000 everyday products. Based on insights from customer data, this assortment combines the best of both the Getir and Gorillas worlds, including many popular local brands. In addition, customers can continue to choose from a wide selection of well-known national and international brands.
