Wonder CEO Marc Lore announced a $650 million Series D funding round that values the food delivery startup at a $9 billion pre-money valuation. The round includes new investors such as funds managed by AllianceBernstein and ARK Invest. Wonder operates a vertically integrated food platform with brick-and-mortar locations that cook 26 different restaurant cuisines under one roof, and it owns delivery through its acquisition of GrubHub. The company plans to expand its restaurant offerings to hundreds per location using automation and robotics, including an 'infinite make line' from its Spice robotics acquisition that can produce 500 bowls per hour. Starting in November, Wonder will also launch a creator platform allowing anyone to build their own bowl concept for $10 a month.
