Industry Context

For nearly a decade, Zomato operated primarily as a restaurant review platform, earning high-margin advertising revenues, and stayed away from food delivery. It entered food delivery in 2015-16, prompted by the emergence of competitors like Swiggy and Uber’s service. Zomato later acquired Uber’s food-delivery business in India.
