Chinese E-Commerce Giant

Meituan is a Chinese tech giant and one of the largest and most comprehensive e-commerce platforms for services in China. Primarily known for its group discount and food delivery service, Meituan has diversified into a myriad of other services through various apps and websites, including but not limited to, in-hotel booking, travel ticketing, and an array of on-demand services. The company connects millions of consumers with local businesses for services such as restaurant bookings, movie ticketing, and bike sharing. The company is headquartered in Beijing, China, and its shares are listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

The History

Initially, it began as a group-buying website, similar to Groupon, offering deals by selling vouchers for local businesses and services. Over time, Meituan expanded significantly, evolving beyond group deals. In 2015, it merged with Dianping, a restaurant review and local services site, resembling Yelp. This merger broadened its business scope, enabling it to offer a wide range of services including restaurant bookings, food delivery, and travel reservations. The company's growth reflects the increasing demand for online-to-offline (O2O) services in China. Meituan's expansion into various service sectors and integration of technology have made it a key player in the Chinese internet ecosystem.

Wang Xing

Wang Xing, the founder and CEO of Meituan, is a prominent figure in China's tech industry. Born in 1979, he is an alumnus of Tsinghua University, where he studied electronics and then pursued a master's degree in computer engineering from the University of Delaware. Before founding Meituan, Wang had ventured into several other start-ups, including a social networking site, Xiaonei, which eventually evolved into Renren. Under his leadership, Meituan has expanded from a group-buying service to a multifaceted platform offering a range of services.

Food Delivery and Much, Much More

Meituan's food delivery business is a cornerstone of its operations, exemplifying the company's innovation and market leadership in China. This segment facilitates the ordering and delivery of meals from a diverse array of restaurants to consumers, leveraging an advanced logistics network and technology-driven solutions. The efficient matching of orders, real-time tracking, and vast delivery personnel network are key to its success. Beyond food delivery, Meituan offers a broad spectrum of services.
