Zomato introduces 'large order' fleet for serving groups of up to 50 people
The company's CEO, Deepinder Goyal, said on X, that an all-electric fleet will be used to deliver the large orders, which were earlier served by multiple regular-fleet delivery partners.
Online food delivery platform has introduced a large order fleet, designed to serve orders for a gathering of up to 50 people for group events like parties.
The company's CEO, Deepinder Goyal, shared the announcement in a series of posts on microblogging site X, formerly Twitter, saying that an "all-electric fleet" will be used to deliver the large orders, which were earlier served by multiple regular-fleet delivery partners, leading to a less than ideal customer experience.
"Today, we are excited to introduce India's first large order fleet, designed to handle all your large (group/party/event) orders with ease. This is an all electric fleet, designed specifically to serve orders for a gathering of up to 50 people.
"Such large orders were earlier served by multiple regular fleet delivery partners, and the customer experience wasn't what we really aspired for. These new vehicles should solve most of the problems our customers face while placing large orders on Zomato," Goyal said in the post.
He emphasised that these vehicles are still "work in progress" and Zomato is in the process of adding important enhancements to them, "like cooling compartments, and hot boxes with temperature control – to ensure everything arrives just the way you like".
