Eternal, parent of Zomato and Blinkit, has launched a new subsidiary, Blinkit Foods Pvt Ltd, amid the expansion of its 10-minute food delivery service, Bistro, operating in Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR. Bistro targets high-quality, low-cost meals without affecting Zomato's core business. However, while customer traction is strong, profitability remains a challenge. Swiggy's similar service, Bolt, is rapidly expanding, whereas Zepto Café has scaled down due to supply challenges. Eternal's recent net profits saw a significant decline despite revenue growth.
