Zomato Pilots Last-Mile Deliveries For Office Goers

Foodtech major Zomato is piloting a new initiative to offer last-mile delivery to office goers inside corporate parks. The company has set up kiosks in several corporate parks in Gurugram, where delivery executives hand over food parcels to a stationed team. A "walker" is then responsible for delivering the items to the customers on their respective floors or exact locations. Zomato is experimenting with this service and plans to scale it across the top five cities based on the pilot's outcome. The company aims to emulate a similar model seen in China, where delivery teams are stationed at zones with corporations and startups. Zomato has been exploring various offerings to boost its revenue, including a platform fee and partnerships for pre-ordered meal deliveries. The company recently reported a profitable quarter and its shares closed higher on the BSE.
