Dublin online grocery delivery company Buymie has raised €2.2 million from investors to scale up and add a second city to its service in response to demand during the coronavirus pandemic.

The company has also extended its trial partnership with German discount supermarket retailer Lidl into a multi-year arrangement. Buymie also delivers groceries from Tesco to customers.

Demand for the company’s services has increased as public health restrictions on movement has led shoppers to turn to online delivery services to protect themselves from catching Covid-19, the deadly disease caused by virus.
