Meal Temple Group invests in Myanmar with Freshgora

Meal Temple Group, the leading startup in food delivery and logistics in Cambodia and Laos is continuing its expansion in the region by partnering FreshGora.com in Myanmar, after raising seed stage funds less than a year ago. Freshgora.com is a local startup based in Yangon, Myanmar, offering many on demand services through its online based mobile application and website. Meal Temple Group is the leading food delivery service in Cambodia and Laos, expanding its logistics offer to local businesses as well and offering its customers more new services.

Both companies just entered an agreement to address the market in Myanmar and expand its operations nationally. With more than 55 million people, including more than 6 million in the Yangon
metropolitan area, Myanmar is one of the fastest growing markets in South-East Asia. Freshgora.com, is a young startup from Yangon, that started less than a year ago, and already achieved to get over the rate of more than 100 deliveries a day in Yangon, offering food deliveries from restaurants and local markets in less than one hour through its own fleet of drivers. Sharing common vision, challenges and opportunities as Meal Temple Group in Cambodia or Laos, Daniel Htut, the founder, and its team, will benefit from Maxime Rosburger, Meal Temple Group’s founder,
and their 5 years experience in the market.

Daniel Htut says “We are really excited to partner with Meal Temple Group and offer our customers in Myanmar more services, support and perks, and be guided by Maxime and his team on how to sustain our growth in the market. After only 8 months, we are already tackling the largest local players, with a clean approach on technology, user experience and interface as well as customer
service. We are also really inspired by Meal Temple Group’s vision on electric vehicles and social impact ambition.”

The local entity will continue to operate as Freshgora, adding more services along the way, and working together with Meal Temple Group for an on demand super app for frontier markets of Asia in the long run. Meal Temple Group is looking to address more than 100 million people in frontier markets of Asia by the end of the year, and grow its technology to a super app model.
