The company saw its number of orders soar by over 900% in 2021, amid the pandemic, to more than 15,000 orders monthly.

“The pandemic was the catalyst that made the platform grow at an accelerated pace,” Costin Gavrilescu, founder of Colete Online, which started its activity in June 2019, told ZF.

He also owns GUV Electronics Prod, a supplier of GPS systems headquartered in Bucharest.

Together, the two companies registered overall turnover of around EUR3 million at the end of 2021, up from almost EUR1 million in 2020.

“For 2022, we expect cumulated turnover worth EUR6 million and we will further develop the platform to streamline and improve clients’ experience,” said Costin Gavrilescu.
