About the Company

Crisp

Sells fresh groceries from small food producers

Crisp runs an online supermarket that brings fresh groceries from small food producers to households across the Netherlands and Flanders. Shoppers use its app to order seasonal produce, bread, dairy and other food, while the company buys directly from makers to shorten the route between farms and kitchens. Its own warehouse and delivery operations prepare and transport orders, supported by software built for purchasing, shopping and last-mile logistics. The business earns money from grocery sales and also supplies workplace lunches, with customers choosing their food or leaving the selection to Crisp. Founded in 2018, Crisp is headquartered in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
