(Press Release<\/a>) Today, ALLVP announced their investment in the grocery-revolutionizing platform Cornershop, further placing their bet on mobile commerce in Latin America. Cornershop offers a state-of the-art shopping experience where customers are able to purchase their groceries online from a variety of local stores and have them delivered to their location of choice within two hours. In line with the rising tide of customer expectations, Cornershop\u2019s core model is founded on consistency, efficiency, and reliability for both customers and retailers, offering the latter additional distribution channels. <\/p>\n

Latin America remains the world\u2019s second fastest-growing e-commerce market behind China, making for an ideal backdrop for this investment. The sharp increase in smartphone penetration, topping 50% in numerous Latin American countries, has made a breakthrough in consumer behavior in a number of markets. The $286 billion untapped grocery market is set to be the new ecommerce battleground coming to the forefront. Groceries currently represent the largest retail market in the Latin American region and considering the current on-demand grocery delivery penetration in Europe as a benchmark, the online grocery market represents a potential US$17bn opportunity.<\/p>\n

The Cornershop team has an outstanding proven track record: Oskar, Daniel and Juan Pablo founded the deal site ClanDescuento which came to be the cornerstone of Groupon\u2019s expansion in Latin America when they were acquired by the daily-deal sensation after just 6 months of operations. The trio went on to lead Groupon Latin America, managing over a thousand employees within a very short space of time. Their new venture Cornershop is already making waves in the grocery market following their soft launches in Mexico and Chile. Their explosive adoption rate, paired with high customer recurrence at such an early stage are testimony to Cornershop\u2019s promising potential.<\/p>\n

The team is convinced of the potential of Latin America, \u201cwe believe that ALLVP\u2019s local network, as well as experience at crafting a successful go-to market strategy in Mexico, will be key in scaling the business\u201d commented Cornershop\u2019s founder and CEO, Oskar Hjertonsson on signing with ALLVP. Managing Partner at ALLVP, Federico Antoni underlined the team\u2019s experience and know-how: \u201cThe founders\u2019 unbeatable combination of technical ingenuity and business acumen make Cornershop the most promising new ecommerce start-up.”<\/p>\n
