CT Corpora’s supermarket unit PT Trans Retail Indonesia is driving the push with Bukalapak. The companies will together invest USD 70 million into the venture called AlloFresh, with Trans Retail owning 55%, Bukalapak 35%, and Growtheum, an investor, owning 10%.
AlloFresh customers will be able to order groceries through a mobile app and its website or by scanning items inside the physical store, the people said. The items will be packed and delivered by ride-hailing institution Grab Holdings, a business partner of AlloFresh. About 10 million mom-and-pop stores that Bukalapak serves will also be able to order groceries from AlloFresh, they said.
