The Berlin delivery service apparently wants to raise capital again. The start-up is reportedly aiming for a valuation of six billion US dollars.
The anger over data privacy issues from last week could quickly evaporate at food delivery service Gorillas. According to US news portal Bloomberg
, citing company sources, the Berlin-based start-up is already targeting its next capital increase just weeks after its latest funding round.The company is reportedly looking to raise $500 million, at a valuation of $6 billion. Just in March, Gorillas had cracked the magic billion-dollar mark, rising to become the so-called unicorn.
The company itself did not confirm the information to Bloomberg , the rumored figures are currently no more than speculation, a spokesman said. Gorillas was in the headlines only last week, because a hacker collective had discovered that data of about 200,000 customers were visible (Startbase
reported). The breach has been closed, the company said.Newsletter
