Dingdang Kuaiyao, which also operates under the name Dingdang Health, is a Chinese online-to-offline (O2O) platform for healthcare services, established in 2014 by founder and Chairman Yang Wenlong. Yang also serves as the CEO of Renhe Yaoye, a pharmaceutical developer, manufacturer, and retailer, a background that informed the creation of Dingdang Kuaiyao to address the unmet need for rapid medicine delivery.
The company's core business revolves around its mobile app and network of self-operated smart pharmacies, which provide 24/7 on-demand delivery of over-the-counter medicines and other healthcare products. A key feature of its service is the promise of delivery within 28 minutes in the cities it serves, a proposition that attracted early users, especially those needing medicine at night. The business operates on an asset-heavy model, directly managing its own pharmacies and logistics to ensure service speed and reliability. This self-supporting structure differentiates it from competitors that rely on third-party delivery platforms. Revenue is generated from the sale of pharmaceutical and healthcare products through its online platform and offline stores.
Beyond rapid delivery, Dingdang Kuaiyao has expanded its services to include online medical consultations, chronic disease management, and psychological counseling, leveraging AI and big data to enhance its offerings. The platform has experienced significant growth, fueled by substantial venture capital funding from investors such as SoftBank China, CMB International, TPG Capital Asia, and OrbiMed. This capital has supported its aggressive expansion plan across major Chinese cities. The company successfully listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in September 2022.
