It was a significant quarter of consolidation to strengthen our European growth platform. We invested across our business to execute our strategy and expansion plans - including in both our existing markets of UK and France and establishing our operations in our third market, Spain. We implemented further systems to drive operational efficiencies as we continue to pursue our vision of transforming urban logistics, one delivery at a time.
There has never been a greater need for sustainable urban deliveries - and I am truly excited about our growth opportunities."
