On Tuesday 16 July 2024, the delivery service Wolt announced it is opening its third city in the Grand Duchy, Mersch, four months after it launched in Luxembourg. 

From today, citizens of the northern city and the surrounding towns can use the Wolt app or website to get food from a dozen restaurants delivered to their homes or offices within 30 minutes.

At the same time, Wolt has expanded its delivery area in the municipalities around Luxembourg City and now delivers to Mamer, Capellen, Sandweiler and Niederanven. 

We’re delighted with the pace of our growth in Luxembourg. Since we launched in the capital in February, we now cover most of the country's area in terms of population. We expanded to the south a month ago, and now we’re adding Mersch and additional towns around Luxembourg City. It’s great to see how popular our service is,” said Ludvig Helmertz, interim managing director of Wolt Luxembourg.  

Football team sponsorship

At the same time, Wolt also announced its decision to become a sponsor of the football club Jeunesse Esch. 

After our recent expansion to Esch-sur-Alzette and the warm welcome of the people there, becoming a sponsor of the local Jeunesse Esch was a quick decision. The football club holds the most league wins in Luxembourg’s history, and their track record of excellence ties well with our business approach: to always go the extra mile and be the preferred delivery app in any market we operate,” added Ludvig Helmertz. 

As part of the partnership, a permanent Wolt pick-up stand at the Jeunesse Esch stadium will allow spectators to pick up their orders before, during and after a game, aiming to enhance their matchday experience.
