Berlin, 21 July 2023 – Today, Delivery Hero SE (“Delivery Hero” or “the Company”) announced that it has purchased all outstanding minority shareholdings – a total of 37% – in HungerStation Holding Limited (“HungerStation”), the sole shareholder of HungerStation Company Ltd in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (“KSA”), which operates Delivery Hero’s Saudi business. The transaction came to a total of USD 297m, which Delivery Hero considered a highly attractive purchase price.
