Lekkerland Se

What Lekkerland Se does

Lekkerland SE is a Germany-based B2B convenience goods wholesaler serving approximately 40,000 retail outlets — including gas station shops, independent convenience stores, kiosks, beverage specialists, foodservice operators, and franchise networks — with a broad assortment spanning beverages, snacks, tobacco (including e-cigarettes and heat-not-burn), fresh convenience foods, non-food items, electronic value products, and seasonal merchandise. The company operates an asset-heavy distribution model through 12 logistics centers and a fleet of 368 company-owned vehicles enabling nationwide next-day and same-day delivery across Germany, supported by a 4,000-employee workforce and ~€10.3 billion in FY2025 revenue.

The technology platform comprises a proprietary digital B2B commerce layer: the Lekkerland24 online shop (available in German, English, and Turkish) handles product ordering, while the Mein Lekkerland customer portal integrates order management, real-time delivery tracking with push notifications, document access, and service request handling with photo upload. Ordering is also supported through field sales representatives, EDI for large chains, and phone/fax channels. Value-added services include category management consulting (PlusTools), turnkey store concepts (REWE To Go, bistro, ice cream, wine, fresh convenience), Smart-Store connected retail technology, equipment provision, and the Foodservice Akademie training program.

Lekkerland generates revenue primarily through wholesale product distribution with quote-based pricing, subject to category-specific minimum order thresholds (€900 mixed, €300 food/fresh, €600 tobacco-only) and a €25 delivery surcharge for sub-threshold orders. Supplementary revenue streams include logistics services, professional consulting, private label brands (notably the 2025-launched Coffee Bean Company), and equipment rental. Since 2020, the company has operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of REWE Group, a European retail and tourism conglomerate with approximately €100 billion in 2025 revenue across 21 countries.
