Gourmondo is Expanding
Gourmondo, the online distributor of delicatessen, wines, and speciality foods from around the world, is expanding its business by a further three European countries, bringing its total to five. Available in Germany since 2002 and the Netherlands since 2011, in summer 2016 the online delicatessen began offering delivery to Austria, the UK, and Ireland.
“Gourmondo offers top-quality culinary delights from outstanding producers with the most extraordinary products. We are delighted to be able to extend our premium range of over 17,000 products to Austria, the UK, and Ireland,” says Pascal Zier, managing director of Gourmondo. “Pre-selection, manufacturing processes, and the quality of the raw materials are Gourmondo’s top priority. To ensure that our customers receive their orders quickly and without hassle, we focus on excellent, reliable service: next-day deliveries on orders made before 4pm, as well as robust, and if necessary refrigerated, packaging, are just some examples of how we achieve this.”
In addition to exclusive champagnes, refined oils, cheeses, spices, and rare wines, Gourmondo’s range also includes refrigerated products such as top-quality meats, which are covered by the company’s “freshness promise”. Gourmondo attaches great importance to sourcing sustainable and regional products, and has been a proud supporter of Slow Food Deutschland e. V. since 2009. Gourmondo has also had organic certification in accordance with EU regulations since 2009. In Germany, Gourmondo operates organic supermarket chain Alnatura’s online store (Alnatura-shop.de).
When it comes to the logistical demands of the online food trade, Gourmondo is benefiting from its acquisition by Delticom in the spring of 2016. Delticom is one of Europe’s leading e-commerce companies. Founded in 1999, the Hanover-based company now has more than 300 online stores and websites in 41 countries. Delticom has built up its e-commerce expertise as an online dealer for tyres and car accessories, and is continually expanding this expertise in new areas and with new products.
