Customers in New York City and New Jersey can now buy Blue Apron meals via delivery and pick-up from Wonder locations
Wonder Group, a company founded by entrepreneur Marc Lore that is redefining at-home dining and food delivery, today will close its previously announced acquisition of Blue Apron (Nasdaq: APRN), the pioneer of the meal kit industry in the United States.
The acquisition will further enhance Wonder’s creation of the super app for mealtime, serving a broad range of dining occasions that feature cuisines from some of the world’s best chefs and restaurants.
Having pioneered a new category of “Fast Fine” dining through its collection of vertically-integrated, delivery-first restaurants, Wonder will now begin offering Blue Apron items to its customers in New York City and New Jersey, a key offering in the company’s strategic roadmap that will expand the ways consumers can access and experience great tasting food.
“We will continue to see a wave of acquisitions as companies struggle to find cash and stay out of debt.” – Shruti Gurudanti, Rose Law Group partner and director of corporate transactions
