About us
kollex is a tech start-up based in Berlin with the goal of digitally connecting gastronomy customers with suppliers, so they can order more easily and efficiently.
Radically local, regionally interconnected - Our goal is to efficiently unify this apparent contradiction. With a leading ordering platform for gastronomy and wholesale, kollex enables the digitalization of an industry that shapes social interaction like no other, transforming empty spaces into places for people to connect. Thanks to our platform, users can network with local suppliers and coordinate ordering simply and quickly - with just a few clicks. We want to ensure that even in the age of globalization, a wide range of products is available, from crowd favourites to insider tips. At the same time, we want small and medium-sized enterprises to also benefit from digitalization - saving time, improving predictability and making the entire ordering process more efficient.
After all, a gastronomy that is both diverse and regionally rooted is not just a tasty side dish: it is an essential ingredient in our culture.
kollex was founded in 2018 and currently has around 60 employees. Our shareholders are market leaders in the food & beverage industry who not only ensure our long-term funding but also give us superior market access: Bitburger Brewery Group, Coca-Cola European Partners, Krombacher Brewery, Rotkäppchen-Mumm and since May 2021 the leading F&B delivery wholesaler, Chefs Culinar.
