«HelloFresh has seen a strong first half of the year, defying all current e-commerce trends. Even though we’ve been facing a number of macroeconomic challenges, our teams have been able to continue to make significant progress across a number of dimensions. These include progressing investments in production sites and automation, improving productivity across our distribution centers and improving the customer experience by adding more choice, more flexibility and an overall better service», says Dominik Richter, CEO and co-founder of HelloFresh. «Most importantly, we’ve been largely mitigating inflation effects without passing on the higher costs in full to our customers.
