LMKG presents Q3 results: Despite tough e-commerce market and seasonally weak quarter; steady customer reactivation and improved average order frequency

LMK Group, a leading supplier of meal kits in the Scandinavian region and a leader in Scandinavian foodtech, today announced its financial results for the third quarter 2022. The Group operates in Sweden, Norway and Denmark under the brands Linas Matkasse, Godtlevert, Adams Matkasse and RetNemt, with the vision to simplify everyday life by offering a large variety of inspiring meals delivered directly to the customer’s front door

CEO Walker Kinman commented: “Our macro-economic climate remains challenged by external factors that impact demand and drive higher costs, but we continue to make progress on efficiency, quality, flexibility, and the exploitation of our technology capabilities. In an environment where many e-commerce actors struggle with decreasing size of shopping baskets, our order frequency increased by 2.5% during the quarter, explained by a higher concentration of loyal customers and improvements in the new customer mix.”
