Founder allegedly wants to leave Frischepost

According to media reports, Eva Neugebauer wants to switch from the insolvent delivery service to its competitor Flaschenpost. The future of Frischepost looks increasingly bleak.

News from the insolvent food delivery service Frischepost: after the Hamburg-based company was left without money at the beginning of August, one of the founders now appears to be planning to switch to Flaschenpost - including customer data and some of her colleagues. This is reported by the e-commerce magazine Internet World Business.

In an email to customers, from which the magazine quotes, co-founder Eva Neugebauer announces that she is switching to Flaschenpost. In the letter, she asked to be allowed to take her customers' addresses with her. The beverage delivery service, which belongs to Dr. Oetker, has been working on entering the food business since 2020. It is unclear whether Neugebauer's possible move is connected to these plans. Flaschenpost has not yet commented.

Frischepost slipped into insolvency at the end of July after the takeover by Berlin-based Footprint Club fell through. Initially, there were plans to continue the business. However, just under two weeks ago, the start-up announced that it had also abandoned these plans and operations were discontinued. Now Neugebauer, who founded the company in 2015 together with Juliane Willing, who had already left the company before the disputes, no longer seems to believe that it will continue to operate.
