About Lezzoo
Summary
Lezzoo builds a super app for consumers across Iraq and Kurdistan, consolidating food, grocery, pharmacy, and utility delivery alongside a digital wallet, a B2B marketplace for FMCG suppliers, local social networking, and in-app games into a single platform. It replaces the fragmented combination of cash transactions, phone-based ordering, and separate apps that Iraqis previously used to handle everyday logistics and commerce. On the B2B side, it digitizes the food supply chain between suppliers and vendors.
Business model
Fees on deliveries and marketplace transactions, plus a digital wallet for in-app payments.
Go-to-market
Consumers download the app directly to access delivery and lifestyle services, while FMCG suppliers and vendors onboard through the B2B marketplace to reach buyers across the region.
From the Y Combinator listing
Lezzoo is an on-demand delivery Superapp for Iraq.
