Grab Acquires Singapore-Based Dining Reservation Firm Chope
Grab Holdings Ltd. has acquired restaurant reservation platform Chope for an undisclosed sum and will take over its operations in Singapore, Indonesia and Thailand, The Business Times reported on Monday.
据《商业时报》周一报道，Grab Holdings Ltd.以一个不公开的数额收购了餐厅预订平台Chope，并将接管其在新加坡、印度尼西亚和泰国的业务。
Chope staff will join Grab's offices in a couple of weeks, BT reported citing an internal email it had seen from Grab head of deliveries Ngiam Xin Wei. No roles in Grab will be made redundant as a result of the deal and Chope's team will remain as a unit under Grab's Omnicommerce business, Ngiam said.
根据Bt的报道，Chope员工将在几周内加入Grab的办公室，Bt引用了Grab交付负责人Ngiam Xin Wei的一封内部电子邮件。Ngiam表示，这项交易不会导致Grab的任何职位被裁撤，而Chope的团队将作为Grab全渠道业务的一个单元继续存在。
Taking over the near-profitable Chope won't dent Grab's positive-adjusted Ebitda, Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Nathan Naidu wrote in a note. Chope's 10,000 merchants will bolster GrabFood's ecosystem of over 200,000, boosting outdoor dining advertising sales, he added.
彭博情报分析师Nathan Naidu在一份报告中写道，接管这家接近盈利的Chope不会影响Grab的调整后盈利前税息折旧与摊销（EBITDA）的正面表现。他补充说，Chope的1万个商家将增强GrabFood超过20万的生态系统，提高室外餐饮广告销售。
Grab's latest acquisition underscores its dominance in ride-hailing and online food delivery in the region. Grab and Indonesian rival GoTo have this year revived discussions about a merger of their core businesses, as they battle it out in the Southeast Asian market of hundreds of millions of people. – Bloomberg
Grab最新的收购强调了其在该地区叫车和在线餐饮外卖方面的主导地位。Grab和印尼竞争对手GoTo今年已恢复了有关合并其核心业务的讨论，因为他们在拥有数亿人口的东南亚市场上展开竞争。- 彭博
