You have been having a dig here ever since Kaddy was acquired. Are you from EDV or another industry insider that feels threatened?

Also having a go at DT in previous posts. So I collated your posts today to make it easier for the legal team.


the guy running this was unable to run an online bottle shop, and now he is going to disrupt AMBEV, DIAGEO, Asahi etc supply distribution arrangements globally .
To state the obvious market places are not a new thing, and there is no new technology here.

By "acquired', "stalwarts of the industry" gee you could not squeeze Doyen in there somewhere.

Yep not quite sure that's a widely held view, nor that the scoreboard is a positive as you suggest.
But agree he has a reputation.

Kaddy use to pitch themselves as a "B2B Afterpay" for the Bev sector, where they were proposing eye watering 7 to 9% platform fees (compared to afterpay's 3.9%).
The DW8 merger materials seem to have gone quite on that (or have i missed it) and pivoted towards B2B marketplace. Not sure if Kaddy's 2019 plans did not get traction were abandoned or what.

My guess was that it was to capital intensive for them to sustain and COVID would have caused more than few bad debt head aches. Be interesting to see if it is dusted off and re-emerges as a theme in the story down the line.
