According to Yonhap News,
(SEOUL=Yonhap News) A South Korean food delivery app said Thursday it has attracted a 40 billion won (US$36.31 million) investment from U.S. financial firm Goldman Sachs as it pushes to expand business overseas.
Kim's app, available on Android and iOS operating systems, is currently No. 1 in such services with more than 14 million downloads made as of mid-October. First distributed in 2010, the app provides users with services similar to the likes of U.S. counterpart GrubHub Food Delivery & Takeout.
The app has already laid eyes on overseas markets, as it joined hands with Line Corp., the Tokyo-based affiliate of South Korean portal operator Naver Corp., and launched another delivery service called "Line Wow" earlier last month.
