What is Wolt Drive

Wolt Drive is our most recent new venture where we offer businesses the opportunity to connect to their customer instantly with the use of our ultra fast last mile delivery.

We launched in Norway in 2018 and are already operating in 19 cities including Oslo, Trondheim, Tromsø, Stavanger, Bergen, Kristiansand, and Lillestrøm, with more to come.
