"Ele.me" is an online food ordering platform. "Ele.me" is a local life platform founded in 2008. The company was founded in April 2009 by Zhang Xuhao, Kang Jia and others in Shanghai and is affiliated to Shanghai Lazzus Information Technology Co., Ltd.

The founder of Ele.me is Zhang Xuhao. The entrepreneurial story of Ele.me:
1. Zhang Xuhao Zhang Xuhao, the main founder of Ele.me, and his partners Kang Jia, Wang Yuan, Ye Feng, and Cao Wenxue all graduated from Shanghai Jiaotong University.
In April 2009, they set their sights on the catering delivery industry and prepared to develop an online ordering system to gradually move the catering industry towards informatization.
2. Coincidentally, Ye Feng from the School of Software of Jiaotong University also saw this as a "breakthrough" for entrepreneurship. Thus, the "Jiaotong University Gang" of the "Ele.me" online ordering system was initially formed.
3. At the beginning of the business, everyone discussed the name of the company. In the end, "Ele.me", a catchphrase among students for ordering takeout, won out and became the company's resounding name with its familiarity and fluency.
4. The initial start-up capital was all scraped together by a few people, and even the tuition fees were not spared. In order to devote himself fully, Zhang Xuhao took the initiative to give up the opportunity to study at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and chose to suspend his studies with Kang Jia.
5. After graduating from college in 2010, Ye Feng gave up the opportunity to join Microsoft and worked hard to start a business with everyone. The initial entrepreneurship was happy and difficult. Everyone fought side by side and fully indulged the passion of youth, but there were also confusions when they hit a wall and lacked funds.
6.
At the beginning, the "Ele.me" team contracted the takeaway business of a restaurant to familiarize themselves with the "market". As the leader of the team, Zhang Xuhao slept only four to five hours a day for several months in a row, and often personally "went into battle" to deliver takeaways, and the storm never stopped.
