With live order tracking and an an average delivery time of 35 mins, the the largest spread of restaurants to order from Zomato looks to offer its consumers the convenience of hassle-free delivery through their own delivery fleet in Ludhiana and Lucknow. The service is available seven days a week.
Owing to its expansion strategy, the delivery app has partnered with ~1000 restaurants across Lucknow and Ludhiana, ranging from the city favourites, legendary restaurants, and Quick Service Restaurants (QSRs), to the coolest of the cafes in town.
"Lucknow has always been known for its love for food. We already have significant traffic from the city for our reviews/listing product and we have only recently introduced our food delivery service in Lucknow. We have been pleasantly surprised with the response within the first fortnight since our launch there. Within two weeks of launch, we are already clocking 3,000 orders a day and growing at 30 percent week on week. The city is showing all the signs of becoming a big growth driver for our business," said Head of Food Delivery - Zomato, Mohit Kumar.
On expansion in Ludhiana, Kumar said that the state of Punjab and therefore the cities of Ludhiana and Chandigarh both have been very welcoming to the food delivery services and, hence, Zomato will see a strong growth trend continuing in the future.
