getvoila

Based in Berlin, getvoila operates as a food portal specializing in the delivery of premium meal boxes from esteemed chefs and restaurants across Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands. The company, officially Dine In Taste GmbH, was established in August 2021 by Julius Wiesenhütter, Florian Berg, and Mostafa Nageeb. The founding team leveraged prior experience from roles at the food delivery company Delivery Hero.

The business model centers on partnering with high-profile culinary figures and establishments to offer their signature dishes as pre-prepared meal kits delivered directly to consumers. These kits, which include both fresh restaurant boxes and premium frozen meals, are designed for customers to finish and assemble at home with minimal effort, requiring no specialized cooking knowledge. This approach allows food enthusiasts to experience creations from top chefs, including those awarded Michelin stars, in their own homes. The company's revenue is generated through the sale of these premium food boxes via its online store. Clients range from individual consumers seeking a fine-dining experience at home to F&B organizations. The platform has collaborated with notable names such as Hotel Sacher in Vienna, 3-star chef Thomas Bühner, and the first vegetarian Michelin-starred restaurant, Cookies Cream.

A significant milestone for the company occurred in December 2023, when it received a single-digit million media investment from SevenAccelerator, the investment unit of ProSiebenSat.1. This deal included a licensing partnership with the popular German TV cooking show "The Taste," making getvoila the official partner and enabling them to exclusively market dishes from the show's judges and guest chefs. This strategic investment, which followed an earlier €8.8 million funding round in February 2022 led by EQT Ventures, aims to substantially increase brand awareness and drive sales. The company has successfully delivered to over 1,200 cities in Germany and is backed by venture capital firms like FoodLabs and angel investors.
