Overview

Zakaz.ua operates an online grocery-ordering platform that processes orders from popular retail chains. The company was founded in 2010 by Ukrainian entrepreneur Yegor Anchyshkin. Anchyshkin previously founded Viewdle, which was acquired by Google in 2012. Zakaz.ua saw an 80% increase in the number of orders it processed in the first days of lockdown in Ukraine. The service has previously attracted outside capital, including a $2.5 million investment from Chernovetskyi Investment Group in 2014. Recent fundraising and the surge in orders suggest increased demand for its online grocery offering during the pandemic period. Zakaz.ua is an e-commerce groceries delivery service launched in 2010 by Yegor Anchishkin that serves residents of Kyiv. The founder previously built Viewdle, which was acquired by Google in 2012. The company is described by industry observers as a profitable and autonomous project with a scalable business model. Management shifted plans away from entering the Russian market and is refocusing on other foreign markets due to geopolitical risks. Prior to the new financing, Zakaz.ua had raised less than $1 million in total. The recent investment is intended to support continued growth and potential international expansion.
