Understanding the investment opportunity
Fudeat is the Marketplace specialised in corporate catering (B2B).
It connects companies (clients) with the best caterers and restaurants (suppliers) through its platform. With a 360 digital service, they cover all the gastronomic needs inside and outside the office for companies and their employees thanks to a virtual management tool, free and 100% customisable.
They work with two lines of service:
- Service to companies: Catering for meetings or events, fruit and snacks for the office, gourmet gift boxes or the complete management of an event outside the office (space, catering, extras...).
- Employee service: Virtual Canteen (daily menus for employees with no minimum orders or transport costs).
Its keys to growth have been:
- Digitalising the contracting of catering and daily menus to offer both clients and suppliers total control of each order.
- Creating a Corporate Account for its customers to manage all the information (orders / invoices / users) on the same platform.
- A Customer Service team that is close, responsive and with very short response and service times.
For all these reasons, today, they are the leading digital platform in Spain for gastronomic services to companies by turnover (GMV) and this is partly thanks to:
- The added value that they know that gastronomy has in bringing teams and companies together.
- The importance they have given, from the beginning, to the development and implementation of a digital and centralised management and control tool for companies.

- In 2021 they achieved an Annual GMV of €1.6M (+38.17% vs 2020) and Gross Margin of 17.71% (including delivery costs) and 19.68% excluding delivery costs. This represented a revenue growth in absolute terms of +54.40% vs 2020.

- In the month of June 2022 they have managed to prove to be one of the few Food delivery companies that is profitable, having achieved a positive net profit.
They are developing new service lines - late dinners = late night food delivery for employees who work late - which will allow them to increase their annual GMV by €1.5M and which they can address without increasing their CAC (currently 60% of their customers are companies where their employees work late and have more than 2,500 TIER 1 registered users). This line will allow them to increase service hours by complementing the current lines. The Gross Margin on this service line will be between 20% - 25%.
