Meituan

Meituan, which was founded in Beijing in 2010, has evolved into a regionalized shopping platform where Chinese consumers may find products exclusive to their location. The majority of the products and services fall under the areas of dining, entertainment, delivery, and travel. The startup expanded its business in 2015 by allowing users to review restaurants and providing them with group discounts and vouchers.

Meituan's business revolves around the "Food+ Platform" strategy and is centered on "eating" as its core as China's largest e-commerce platform for services. In China, Meituan runs a number of well-known smartphone apps, including Meituan, Dianping, Meituan Waimai, and others. Its operations span over 2,800 cities and counties across China and include catering, on-demand delivery, car-hailing, bike-sharing, hotel and vacation booking, cinema tickets, and other entertainment and leisure services.

Meituan partners with a large number of merchants and different partners to provide consumers with a better quality of life by leveraging its advantages in innovative technologies. By doing so, Meituan is hastening the digitization of the lifestyle services industry in both demand and supply.

On September 20, 2018, Meituan (3690.HK) was formally listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange Limited. To better fulfill its ethical responsibilities, generate more value for society, and achieve win-win cooperation with its partners, Meituan continues to focus its business on customers while growing its investment in technological R&D.
