Deliveroo Hong Kong has appointed Kevin Wong as commercial director.
In his new position, Wong will lead the Deliveroo Hong Kong restaurants team consisting of over 60 account managers, business development professionals, and restaurant operations executives to build the food delivery partnership experience for restaurants to help them grow their business through delivery and establish innovative new ways to drive sales. Wong will be the face of Deliveroo Hong Kong in the F&B industry to manage a restaurant portfolio of over 8,000 partners and grow the brand's list of partners in the market.
Also, Wong will utilise his deep understanding of the Hong Kong and Asian food retail markets and current consumer trends to help the company further its growth. His appointment comes as Deliveroo Hong Kong seeks to boost its commercial team to drive growth ambitions across the city, supporting restaurant and grocery partners, while the company fosters existing relationships and establishes new ones with local favourites, established chains and homegrown heroes.
"I am honoured to be a part of the creative synergy that makes the company uniquely inventive in the on-demand delivery space, especially as we continue to strengthen our relationships with our restaurant partners and help to drive growth here in Hong Kong, while exploring new avenues of growth such as on-demand convenience," said Wong.
Prior to joining Deliveroo Hong Kong, Wong was general manager at Asia Wine Service & Education Centre and had spent over two decades at The Dairy Farm Group, most recently as the regional category director (food) in North Asia and as sales and merchandising director for the supermarket leader Wellcome.
“Wong is truly a seasoned professional in Hong Kong’s local retail market, and his track record in understanding customers, in-depth industry knowledge, unparalleled merchandising expertise and decades of leadership experience is sure to bring an innovative and thoughtful perspective to the commercial role and the Deliveroo Hong Kong leadership team," said Brian Lo, general manager of Deliveroo Hong Kong.
