Food apps are extremely popular in central/eastern eu, here in Czechia the local DameJidlo is also a largely successful company. Wolt is now becoming a serious competitor to them, they already have a much better app.

Not to detract from your point re competition, but isn't DameJidlo one of the brands of Delivery Hero? Do they have an engineering office in Czechia?

It was sold to DeliveryHero (if that's indeed the current owner), originally a Czech company; they had a rather large engineering centre here when it was still Czech, not sure about the present. The founder went on to create Rohlik.cz
