Wolt is a Helsinki-based local commerce and on-demand delivery platform that connects consumers with restaurants, grocery stores, and retail merchants. Founded in 2014 by Miki Kuusi and five co-founders, Wolt operates apps and a website allowing users to order food, groceries, and household goods for pickup or courier delivery. The company expanded from Finland to 25+ countries across Europe and Asia, and was acquired by DoorDash in 2022 for $8.1 billion in an all-stock transaction. Wolt continues to operate as DoorDash's primary sub-brand outside North America and Australasia.
