  Rohlik Group is an online grocery platform that offers a large assortment including fresh food from local farmers and artisans, supermarket goods, and private-label brands. The service emphasizes reliable delivery with 15-minute delivery windows and same-day deliveries available as soon as one hour after booking, and applies automation at multiple steps to improve customer experience, efficiency, and sustainability. The company operates branded services across the Czech Republic, Hungary, Austria, Germany and Romania. Led by Founder and CEO Tomáš Čupr, Rohlik combines rapid logistics with a broad product assortment to compete in online food retail. The company recently secured growth capital to support continued expansion across its markets. Rohlik operates an online grocery delivery service offering roughly 17,000 SKUs with a 90-minute turnaround and 15-minute booking slots. The company produces some items (such as baked goods) and partners closely with local shops and small producers; fresh produce accounts for about 40% of its sales. Rohlik is active in Prague, Budapest, Vienna, Munich and Frankfurt and plans further expansion to Hamburg, Milan, Bucharest and Madrid while emphasizing measured, city-by-city growth. Management says the funds will be used to continue investing in existing markets and to fuel growth. Financially, Rohlik reported €500 million in revenue in 2021 and said it has been profitable in Hungary since 2021 and in the Czech Republic since 2018; it declined to disclose current revenue figures. Rohlik operates a large online grocery marketplace that sources goods wholesale, partners with established brands, and aggregates items from local small businesses. It stocks a broad assortment (17,000+ SKUs) and promises delivery in as little as two hours from its dark‑store logistics. The company is already profitable in its home market of the Czech Republic and reported revenues above €300 million in 2020 with over 750,000 customers. Average orders range from roughly €60–€100 and customers typically shop about once per week. Rohlik localizes brands in each market (e.g., Kifli.hu in Hungary, Gurkerl.at in Austria, Knuspr.de planned for Germany) while keeping a consistent logistics and assortment formula. Management says the product mix can be rebalanced by market and that the model supports cross‑market distribution of local suppliers’ goods. Rohlik operates an online grocery ordering and delivery service that marries wholesale supermarket items with products from local butchers, fishmongers, bakers and small businesses. Its online store carries roughly 17,000 items and offers two-hour delivery windows with orders bookable in 15-minute slots. The company uses logistics technology and large fulfillment venues located close to customers to enable rapid urban delivery. Founded in 2014 and based in the Czech Republic, Rohlik currently serves the Czech Republic, Hungary and Austria and plans expansion into Germany, Poland, Romania and other countries. Rohlik reported FY2020 revenue of €300 million, a 101% year‑over‑year increase, served 750,000 customers and is profitable. The company says the new funding will provide more fuel to grow its metropolitan footprint and accelerate international expansion.
