Descriptiontext

VICIO is a Barcelona-based, delivery-only premium burger brand founded in 2020 that operates a network of dark kitchens producing gourmet burgers for direct home delivery. The company runs 15 locations across Spain — anchored in Barcelona and Madrid and extended to Zaragoza and Andalusian localities — and as of 2023 employed 430+ staff having sold over 2 million burgers. Its menu spans 13 SKUs across classic, spicy, BBQ, truffle-premium, chicken, and plant-based segments (e.g., Cheeseburger Trufada, BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger, Vegan Truffle Burger), positioned above mass-market burger competitors on quality and ingredient story. VICIO monetizes via direct-to-consumer transactional sales on its own ordering platform (vicio.com) and through third-party aggregators, notably Glovo, which provides access to 23 markets and 1,800 cities.

The company has built a community- and brand-led go-to-market rather than a purely utilitarian delivery play. Its €17 million Series A in April 2023 was led by IRIS Ventures with celebrity backing from Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann and Javier Rubió's Barlon Capital, followed by a €1.66 million equity crowdfunding round on Crowdcube from 1,460 retail investors the next month — an unusual dual-track capital structure that doubles as a marketing and brand-advocacy channel. Co-branded campaigns (e.g., Nike's 'Y NIKE NOS DIÓ LO NUESTRO') and a strong Instagram presence (@ganasdevicio) reinforce a lifestyle-oriented positioning targeting premium burger consumers willing to pay for restaurant-quality delivery.

In February 2026, VICIO executed its first cross-border expansion, partnering with Portuguese restaurant group Plateform to open a nightlife-format burger concept in Lisbon's Príncipe Real district. The company has publicly stated ambitions to expand to major capitals worldwide, indicating Portugal is a beachhead rather than an endpoint. Underlying the delivery operation is a straightforward online ordering and food-delivery technology stack; the company has not disclosed proprietary AI/ML, recommendation, or demand-forecasting capabilities in available sources.

Essential-businessPortugal sees popularity of gourmet beef burgers expandPortugal's beef and ham burger retail sector, valued at €1.6 billion, has expanded beyond traditional fast-food giants as gourmet burger options proliferate across the country. The fast-food segment captured 29% of the total restaurant industry turnover in 2024, driven by demand for high-quality quick meals, international trends, and social media influence.
