What Horeca does
Horeca operates Horecaclub.ru, a Russian online catalog and referral platform that aggregates professional equipment suppliers serving the HoReCa segment — hotels, restaurants, catering operators, food production businesses, and dry-cleaning/laundry providers. It is operated by the Moscow-based legal entity AO "KREATIKA" (ЗАКРЫТОЕ АКЦИОНЕРНОЕ ОБЩЕСТВО "КРЕАТИКА") and is positioned as a centralized buyer-facing directory rather than a transactional marketplace. The platform's core product is a curated catalog connecting roughly 30+ partner-supplier websites, supplemented by editorial/news content and a Loyalty Card program that links buyers to partner suppliers across repeated procurement cycles.
Technically, Horecaclub.ru is a content-driven directory rather than a proprietary technology platform: its underlying components are supplier profile pages, product/equipment listings, news content, and a loyalty-card linkage mechanism. There is no disclosed proprietary algorithm, no AI/ML component, and no mention of a transaction engine. Distribution is generated through organic search, direct buyer traffic, and editorial partnerships with established Russian HoReCa industry portals such as HoReCa.ru and HoReCa Magazine.
The commercial model is a two-sided marketplace: revenue is generated from suppliers — through catalog placements and, presumably, referral fees when buyers are funnelled to partner supplier websites — and the Loyalty Card program, which deepens buyer–supplier stickiness. The platform serves only the Russian market, has no disclosed enterprise customer base or scale financials, and operates without disclosed funding, M&A, or leadership change activity.
