Take Eat Easy is a Brussels-headquartered premium restaurant delivery platform that partners with higher-end restaurants and emphasizes logistics and delivery quality. The company uses technology that provides dynamic delivery times, updating estimates based on demand, restaurant prep time, courier position and speed. CEO Adrien Roose says this approach helps manage customer expectations and avoid cold deliveries. The startup highlights its logistics technology as a competitive differentiator versus rivals that pause orders or overstaff. Take Eat Easy plans to consolidate its presence in France and Belgium and expand further into the U.K., Germany and Spain. Financially, the company returned to the market after a €6M Series A in April and closed a new €10M Series B to fund that expansion. Take Eat Easy operates an online ordering platform paired with its own logistics network of independent bicycle couriers to deliver food from premium restaurants that typically do not offer takeout. The company launched tentatively in 2013 and is headquartered in Brussels, having expanded from Belgium into France where it works with about 250 restaurants, most in Paris. Its apps provide real-time order tracking with GPS and continually updated estimated delivery times based on kitchen load and courier availability. Take Eat Easy positions itself on customer service and reliable delivery as a differentiator versus marketplace models that leave delivery to restaurants. The startup raised a €6 million Series A to consolidate its existing markets and fund European expansion. Management has named the U.K., Spain, and Germany as immediate targets for growth.
