Hello, Fresh is a publicly traded meal kit delivery service. Dominik Richter, Thomas Griesel, and Jessica Nilsson founded HelloFresh in Berlin, Germany, in November 2011. Richter and Griesel personally packed and delivered the first ten customers. It was one of the first companies in the meal-kit business. Rocket Internet, a German startup studio, initially funded them. They began delivering meal kits to paying customers in early 2012, and the following year expanded to the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Australia. The company claimed to deliver one million meals per month by 2014. After raising $10 million in 2012 and $7 million in 2013, they raised $50 million in a 2014 funding round.
The company had 250,000 subscribers by March 2015, but it was still not profitable. It was valued at $2.6 billion in September of that year during a funding round in which it raised $75 million, making it a unicorn company. At the time, Rocket Internet still held a majority stake in the company. Due to concerns about the company’s proposed value, it canceled an IPO planned for November. It grew significantly during the year, reaching 530,000 subscribers by the end of October. By July 2016, it had 750,000 subscribers, and by the third quarter of 2017, it had 1.3 million. In October 2017, the company announced a $350 million IPO on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. On November 2, the company completed its initial public offering (IPO), valued at $1.7 billion. At the time of its IPO, the company’s market capitalization was more than double that of its largest US-based competitor, Blue Apron.
Green Chef, a US organic meal-kit company, was acquired by HelloFresh in March 2018. HelloFresh Canada, based in Toronto, acquired Chefs Plate, a Canadian meal-kit company, in October 2018. Rocket Internet sold its remaining stake in HelloFresh to international institutional investors in 2019 through accelerated book building. As of the end of 2018, Rocket Internet owned 30.6% of HelloFresh.
