REVIEW OF LITERATURE

1
Introduction about the sector

Food delivery market in India worth over 12.5 billion, Online food delivery is
contributing more than 7% to this market. More than 50,000 restaurants in India
provides home delivery, indicates a very high potential and untapped market in
online food delive ry space.

Players in the industry broadly classified into three categories ---

o Fully integrated: Those who process food and delivers (Dominos,


McD etc)
o Delivery as a Service

o Aggregators: Provides a platform for customers where they could


discover restaurants, navigate through menus of different cuisines,
and select the food. Delivery made by the restaurant. In short,
aggregates information about food for customers and function as an
order generating channel for restaurants. (Swiggy, Zomato,
FoodPanda etc)

Reasons for growth in online food delivery industry:

o Increase in disposable income and deeper internet penetration of


customers (web/mobile).
o Restaurants tying up with online food delivery platforms claim to
get a profit margin of more than 2 to 3% than dine- ins.

These days’ people are prone to placing food orders online and capitalising this
trend a lot of restaurants are yielding good returns by registering themselves on
online ordering sites like Foodpanda, Tastykhana, JustEat, HyderabadSpecial etc
and many local ordering websites are also following suit.

2
Driving factors

Greater awareness and disposable income along with deeper Internet penetration, availability of
more payment options, long working hours and erratic lifestyle are contributing online food
ordering business. At the same time, with more and more people wanting healthy food, or food
similar to home cooked meals that too easy on the pockets is leading to the rise of online food
business in the country.
Nixon Dsouza, Brand Manager, Nom Nom, says, “Penetrating through every commercial aspect
humans have started using technology for everything and food ordering is one such
developments”.
Rohit Chadda, MD and Founder Foodpanda, believes, “Online ordering is convenient giving
the customers a broader option to choose from the restaurants listed on the website.”

Future of the business

As per the industry experts, the overall food delivery business is more than USD 7 billion to
which online food ordering contributes 5-7 percent and is growing 40 percent per year than
dine- in culture. The margin is however two to three percent higher in deliveries. According to Ritesh
Dwivedy, MD and CEO, JustEat, “The future seems bright for the online food business in
India, as we are trying to catch up with developed markets where 30 percent of delivery takes
place through online channels.”

Major players

Online food ordering is at an exciting phase now. Many local and national players are joining the
space. In fact the foreign brand JustEat has also tied up with the Bangalore based HungryZone.
Foodpanda which started its business from Delhi-NCR is the major player in the segment
followed by JustEat and TastyKhana, a Pune initiative. Besides, DeliveryChef, BigBite, Titbit
and eatallnite are the emerging players in the online food delivery market which is estimated to
grow at 40 percent annually.
Benefits

Placing food orders online benefits consumers, restaurants and the food delivery players. For
consumers, it is not only an easy and convenient tool but it is also a great platform to avail good
discounts.
Vasul Chauhan, Restaurant Manager, Smokeys Barbeque & Grill, said, “We have partnered with
JustEat to explore new business opportunities and give a push to our already successful home
delivery format but till now the response is not overwhelming.”
However, Dwivedy is of the opinion that, “The profit margin is 2-3 percent higher in
deliveries as compared to dine-in these days”

Marketing strategies

Online food delivery platforms largely try to be present in all the channels that drive awareness.
For example, newspapers, television, hoardings and billboards to the social networking sites like
Facebook and Twitter, they advertise in all. Chadda explained, “We give about 15-30 percent
discounts on ordering through us. At the same time we have also organised several campaigns
including the food gifting programmes and buy one get one free deals.”

Market Research

Market research is defined as “function that links the consumer, customer, and

public to the marketer through information- information used to identify and


define marketing opportunities and problems; to generate, refine, and evaluate
marketing actions; to monitor marketing performance; and to improve
understanding of the marketing process. Marketing research specifies the
information required to address these issues, designs the methods for collecting
information, manages and implements the data collection process, analyzes,
and
communicates the findings and their implications. .”.

Briefly it is a systematic design, collection, analysis, and reporting of data and


findings relevant to a specific marketing situation facing the company, allows
management to make the changes necessary for better results through adopting a
proactive approach. Therefore, if a company wants to know what type of
products or services would be profitable it should make a market research.
Furthermore, a comprehensive research will enable the company to know
about the product imperfections (if there are) and to know if it has been able
to satisfy
customers’ needs. It attempts to provide accurate information that reflects a true

state of affairs. Due to market research the company can formulate a viable
marketing plan and estimate the success of its existing plan.
There are two main sources of marketing research information :

 Primary marketing research is collected for the first time if the


company has enough money to finance it, but in most case it is the second
more accurate one. It is original and collected for a specific purpose, or to
solve a specific problem. Primary research delivers more specific results
than secondary research, more expensive and time consuming, which
are an especially important consideration when the company is launching
a new product or service.
There are many ways to conduct primary research. By customizing tried - and-
true approaches, focus groups, surveys, field tests, interviews or observation,
you can gain information about your target market. Primary research is
generally based on sampling techniques and requires statistical methodologies.
The sample size could be as small as 1 percent of the market and thus the
information and results gathered are highly accurate.
 Secondary marketing research or desk research is generally used when a
company considering, extending a business into new markets or adding
new services or product lines, because it already exist in one form or
another. This information is based on studies previously performed by
government agencies, chambers of commerce, trade associations, and
other organizations. There are number of sources available to the
marketers, which are the following: Business libraries, Public
records,
Trade associations, Websites, National/international governments,

Informal contacts and Professional institutes and organizations. That is


why secondary research is relatively cheap, and can be conducted quite
quickly. However, its main disadvantage is that the information gathered
may be old and obsolete, therefore results of analysis may be inaccurate.

Marketing Research Procedure


Stage-1 Research Purpose:-

The first step in the procedure of market research is to define research purpose. Research
purpose is usually not very well defined or fully understood. The procedure of fully and
accurately defining and understanding research purpose always requires efforts. The research
purpose is typically developed as result of recognizing and understanding problem. This problem is
usually generated by realization of fissure between expected out come and the outcome in reality.

It is also important to define reason of problem that where that problem occurred. The
problem definition is the point on which the whole arrangement is formed.
Stage-2 Research Objectives:-

Research objective is accurate report about required in sequence. It understands problem


statement more accurately and in more understandable way. Research objectives are designed in
such a way that chore of finding required information fully provide the research purpose.

Research objectives have three essential parts.

Research Question
The research question describes information required by organization accountable for decision
making. Research question represents the in sequence needs to obtained accordingly to research
purpose.

Hypothesis

Hypothesis is researcher’s view of probable answer to a research question. The Researcher may
produce possible outcome of research question in earlier stage and carry out research to answer
that if hypothesis created at start of research was right or not.

Scope of Research
Hypothesis development aids keeping research procedure more accurate and well-focused to
serve research purpose. Another important issue of the research is indicating research
boundaries or research limitations.

Stage-3 Estimating the Value of Research information: -


After defining research purpose, objectives and scope it is also very significant to estimate
value of information needed or the value of research problem that will possibly be replied in research
question.

Stage-4 Research Design

Research design is in general structure or framework of research that is developed in order to


conduct research.
Research design may include following tasks

Primary and Secondary Data analysis:-

There are two types of data analysis

Primary data is data that research needs to collect by himself more specific to research
conducted. Primary data is usually collected through questionnaire surveys, interviews, and focus
groups etc.

Secondary data is not first-hand data as primary research it is the data that already is
available like journals, books, articles, company records etc.

Qualitative and Quantitative Research:-

After selecting type of data required for research it is decided that what medium of data is
required. Research can be through quantitative or qualitative or both depending on the wish of
researcher.

Stage-5 Data Collection

After preparing questionnaire the next job is to practically get into filed and distribute
questionnaires among group of respondents. It can also be done through

On line surveys,
Phone
conversations,
Face to face interviews,
and By post.
In larger scale marketing research full dedicated field team or person may be required in order.

Stage-6 Data Analysis

After gathering of data it is then procedures to derived results in order to change them in
conclusion, data analysis can be conducted with two methods manual or computer based data
analysis. There can be different types of mathematical formulas can be used on data that is
collected from questionnaires. It can also be checked for precision and soundness.
Stage-7 Reporting Results and Presentation
The Last and final part of research procedure is to write down in black and white whole project
findings and write report that replies that specific research question that was identified at

initiation of research. Research report also includes research loom adopted, design, collection
and analysis of data together with all results of data. This report should be in the form to be
prepared for decision makers to be used in decision maker procedure.

Simple Random Sampling

A simple random sample is one in which each member of the population has an
equal and independent chance of being included in the random sample. If the
sample is large, this method is the best way to obtain a sample representative
of the population. Simple random sampling approximates drawing a sample out of
a hat: Members of a population are selected one at a time, independent of one
another and without replacement; once a unit is selected, it has no further
chance to be selected. The steps in simple random sampling comprise the
following:
1. Define the population.

2. List all members of the population.

3. Select the sample by employing a procedure where sheer chance determines


which members on the list are drawn from the sample.
Step-by-ste p method for determining reliability of data

As soon as data collection begins, steps can be taken to ensure the data is
reliable. Following these steps will allow insight into whether or not enough
data has been collected to provide reliab le (95% certainty) information:

 Determine coding scheme for data . Depending on the options that survey
and interview respondents have to answer questions, the data will have
to be coded for each question. Given the type of information most state
programs seek through interviews and surveys, this data should be able
to be divided into two categories. For instance, if the question is a yes or no
question, then one category would be yes, the other would be no. If the
question asks participants to place items into a Likert scale, then two
categories would be created in order to determine which half of the Likert
scale the data favored (with the total number of neutral answers being
counted, divided by two, and placed equally into each of the two
categories).
 Code responses . Code your responses to each answer in order to

determine which of the two categories created for each question the
answer would fit. Once you have coded all of the answers, determine how
many answers fall into each of the two divisions.
 Compute reliability. Although you will have a random sample to use at
this point, you will not likely be able to interview or survey all of the
people in that sample. This is acceptable, as the entire 15% will likely
not be needed in order to come to a reliable conclusion (although, in
some rare cases where enough responses cannot be obtained from the
participants originally selected, the original population must be re-
visited to find more randomly selected sampling units).
Questionnaire Design

A questionnaire is a document designed with the purpose of seeking info rmation


from the respondents.

Steps in Questionnaire Design:-

1. What is involved

The researcher defines the info rmation that is being sought.

 Consider research objectives.

 Discuss with others in the fie ld .

 Literature searches and wide reading on Literature searches


and wide reading on the topic.

 Review earlier questionnaires/scales or Review


earlier questionnaires/scales or instruments that may be available.

2. Drafting of questionnaire

 Researcher takes the list of information they wish to obtain


from respondents and devises draft questions.

 Phrasing and design of questions affect the validity of the affect the
valid ity of the info rmation obtained.

 Sequencing the questions –background variables first,


introduce each theme/topic area in separate sections

 Methods for coding the data

 Methods for analysis of the data

 Layout and presentation - make it easy to complete and present


professionally;

 Consider your audience - type face, font size, instructions, use of


language (elderly respondents need instructions, use of language
(elderly respondents need large font)

 Cultural and gender appropriateness.


3. Questionnaire pilot

 Trial the new questionnaire with a small group of intended


respondents or colleagues to improve clarity, remove problems
before the main survey

 Analyze the responses to the pilot survey (are some response


categories never used, analyze some response categories never used,
analyze the missing data, are some Qs misunderstood?)
 Ask the respondents or colleagues for feedback Ask the
respondents or colleagues for feedback about design and questions
4. Redrafting the Questionnaire

 If problems were found then the questionnaire will need to be


redrafted

 If there are major changes required it is best to then do another


pilot

 If the problems are minor the researcher may If the problems are
minor, the researcher may then proceed to administration of the
questionnaire to the full sample
5. Administration of the Questionnaire

 After development of the questionnaire, it is administered to


the full sample of respondents administered to the full sample of
respondents
 How would this be done? Postal, telephone, structured interview.
Mode of administration differences Bias issues in clinical
follow up and patient satisfaction surveys can arise.

 The responses are then analysed in terms of the researcher’s aims


and objectives.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Questionnaire Design

Tabl e 2

Summary

 Questionnaires are useful tools if properly designed and administered and


administered
 Well- constructed questionnaires can yield valuable and often novel
information relatively inexpensively and often novel information
relatively inexpensively
 A questionnaire is a vehicle allowing communication between the
researcher and the subject between the researcher and the subject
 A good questionnaire is the product of testing and retesting

 Where ever possible, construct or use a valid and reliable tool, or test its
valid ity and reliab i li ty.

Competitor Analysis

Competitive analysis is a process used in the


formulation of strategic plans in most organizations.
Very often, it is adopted due to its rational process
of making long- term strategies. This is a process
for identifying a specific acceptable strategy for each
individual organization, determined by its own
particular circumstances.
In any competitive analysis, industry structure analysis
is unavoidable. The first step in analyzing industry
structure is to define the market or industry. Having
defined the market, the next step in the analysis is to
identify the structure of that market. We can do this
by analyzing the external factors which may affect
the market usually termed as Porter’s 5 forces. These
include Threat of new entrants, Rivalry among firms,
Threat of Substitutes, Bargaining power of suppliers
and bargaining power of buyers. This can also be done
using S WOT analysis of that particular industry.
Analyzing the forces and making judgments on their
relative importance should lead managers to see how
they can deal with and influence the forces, thus
identifying competitive advantage. The purpose of
identifying a market’s structure, and the sources of
competitive advantage it causes, is to draw
conclusions about strategies that will match or fit the
environment.
Based on such frameworks, the manager need to
demonstrate that strategies recommend fulfil a strategic
logic. Strategic logic means that a proposed
sequence of actions is consistently related to the
objectives of the organization and yet matches the
organization’s capability to its environment.
Therefore, in order to achieve this, various analytical
techniques to determine the strategic logic of a
sequence of actions have been prescribed. They
include SWOT analysis, Life cycle Analysis, Portfolio
analysis and Value chain analysis.

COMPANY PROFILE
What’s the Swiggy Story?

What made Harsha, Nandan and Rahul build a platform that is Changing the way India
eats?

Swiggy is a phoenix that rose out of Harsha & Nandan's earlier venture, Bundl
Technologies. After a slow start, Swiggy snowballed into an unstoppable force that
is now changing the way India eats. What happened along the way?

It all started back in 2014 when two BITS Pilani graduates, Sriharsha Majety and
Nandan Reddy decided they wanted to make life easier by changing the way India
eats - all with just a tap! With their idea of ’hyperlocal food delivery’, all they
needed was the tech to power it and were introduced to Rahul Jaimini, who brought
this vision to life with the first website. And with this, Swiggy was launched as a
food ordering & delivery platform.

In August of 2014, Swiggy began operations by signing up a few restaurants in


Koramangala, Bengaluru. Soon enough, the first team of Hunger Saviors came into
action to deliver food within 40 minutes. Shortly after, Swiggy raised its first round
of funding and launched the app in May of 2015. Fun fact: The technology that
delivers great food right to your doorstep was completely developed in-house!

With love and support from consumers, Swiggy expanded far and wide, first through
the entire city of Bengaluru and then across the entire country. As they say, the rest
is history.

Today, Swiggy is the leading food ordering and delivery platform in India. The
innovative technology, large and nimble delivery service, and exceptional consumer
focus at Swiggy enabled a host of benefits that includes lightning fast deliveries, live

Competitor Analysis

This is the second phase of the internship where we have to find out the
competitors of the new food app Swiggy. This research was mainly carried out
by visiting various restaurants within the localities and asking from them
about the services other competitors are providing and their way of taking or
giving orders to the restaurants on behalf of the customers and also by doing some
secondary research about the competitors available. This also includes knowing
about their delivery patterns, delivery charges etc.

Mainly according to the market research in Bangalore there are mainly 2 big
competitors of Swiggy i.e. Food Panda and Zomato. Also, locally available
food app Swiggy is also giving tough competition to Swiggy in terms of its
delivery boys. Following are the findings of the 2 major competitors i.e. Food
Panda and Zomato.

FOOD PANDA analysis

SWOT Analysis
Strengths

 It is the largest American Chinese restauran t chain in the United States.


 It has close to 1,700 plus restaurants located across all different states in
the United States.
 Offers a variety of food along with combo meals.
 Panda Express is among the US's 25 largest quick- service operations and
Asian quick- serve category.
 The chain was one of the earliest entrants into the supermarket arena.
 Strategically located in mall food courts and other non- traditional venues
including airports, college campuses, and theme parks.
It has a successful track record of making Asian cuisine accessible to the
masses.
Strong following among Asian, Hispanic, and Caucasian diners. 
Leveraged lovable pandas in their name
Weakness

 Restricted to one cuisine thus restric t ing its customer base.


 Specialty ingredients used in Chinese food might be difficult to source and store.
 Restricted in a few geographies means lower brand recall.
 Price differences in menu and app prices.

Opportunities

 There is a large market leading to huge customer base.


 Venturing into newer markets.
 Introducing more items on its menu.
 Untapped market as online food apps contribute only 7%

Threats

 Managing huge employee base can be an issue.


 Stiff competition from multi cuisine restaurant.
 Presence of strong competitors in the Chinese restaurant segment.
 Threat of New entrants.

Market Share

1) They’ ve grown to become one of the largest food ordering portals in India.

2) Built a network of 2000+ partners including some of the well know brands
like: Pizza Hut, Subway, Nirula’s, Baskin Robbins, Mast Kalandar, Faasos
amongst many others.
3) We have quite steadily ‘shaped the market’ towards ordering food online,
instead of ordering on phone. This has helped us gather a lion share of the food
delivery market, and propel us towards a leadership position in the market.
Growth
India is a market with huge potential where the scope for growth is immense.
However, with internet penetration of only 8%, it is only logical to target the
more cosmopolitan Tier I cities which have a sizable working population with
mature internet users.

We’ve seen a steady growth in traffic since our launch last year. However, the
focus has really always been on quality traffic & targeting potential customers,
which we have been able to achieve very successfully. We are growing by 25 -
30% on month- on- month basis.

Currently we get around 25000 - 30000 unique visitor a day. With this 65% of our
traffic comes from Delhi, Mumbai & Bangalore and rest 35% from Chandigarh,
Hyderabad and Pune.

Market Strategy
Being an ecommerce business, we believe it is best to target our potential
customers when they are online in front of their computer screens, in encourage
them to try us out. Hence our focus has majorly been on digital marketing
channels.

We believe in providing the best customer experience on our site and hence our
product is continuously evolving adding new features almost every other week.
We launched our mobile app in January and was very well received. We have
already seen more than 250,000 app downloads worldwide which is a clear
indicator of the need for innovation in the space and we are happy to take the
lead.

Financial funding
Foodpanda announced that it has raised $20 million to fuel its aggressive growth strategy.

FoodPanda’s steepest competition is Delivery Hero, a Berlin-based startup that operates in 14


countries around the world. Delivery Hero has raised nearly $200 million to date and claims it
has 6 million customers, 55,000 restaurants, and did $500 million in annual sales last year.
Another competitor is Just Eat, a UK-based service that raised $64 million in 2012. The U.S.
saw consolidation in this space last year with the union of GrubHub and Seamless.
FoodPanda has 22,000 restaurants in its database. It raised $20 million last May and added 20
more markets in 2013. With this financing, it plans to hit 40 countries by the end of the first
quarter of 2014. Croatia, Bulgaria, Serbia, Slovenia, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Tanzania and
Uganda are next up for expansion.

Foodpanda has over 892,000 likes on Facebook, 383 followers on their Pakistan
twitter account (@FoodPandapk), and a thriving campaign tempting people to
try them out. What sets them apart from their competitors is that they are able to
take a worldwide brand and make it country specific, and market themselves
accordingly.
Popularity

They know what their consumers want, and they know how to get it to them.
Foodpanda has been able to distinguish itself in a market that is seeing a
growing number of online food delivery services.

Forward Expansion
Foodpanda is now available in 41 countries and is looking to expand to even
more. The company made an announcement in February stating: “Foodpanda and
its affiliated brand hellofood, the fastest growing online food delivery
marketplace worldwide, received another USD 20 million in funding from a
group of investors including Phenomen Ventures.
With the new investment Foodpanda is aiming to continue its global ambitions
and roll out to over 40 markets.” The company previously received another USD
20 million from AB Kinnevik in Sweden, and Phenomenon Ventures. They also
received USD 8 million from iMENA.

Foodpanda raised $110 million in a fresh round of fund raising from Rocket
Internet and other investors. Since 2012, Foodpanda has raised over $200
million and plans to invest into product and technology. With the entry of
Zomato and Swiggy in the online food ordering space, Foodpanda wants to
focus on providing the best customer service to its users. In an interview, Rohit
Chadda, co- founder and managing director of Foodpanda, tells Neha
Bothra about plans to tap potential in tier 2 and tier 3 cities, and increase
restaurant partners from 12,000 to 15,000 in the next six months.
Order rate at Food Panda
We earn revenue from the commission we earn from restaurants on every
successful order that we place. In terms of traffic, we get around 1,30,000 to
1,50,000 visitors each day. The average value of each order ranges between Rs
500 to Rs 550. This is higher on the mobile platform. Around 45 - 48% of our
transactions come from our smartphone based application, and the transaction
size on this platform is 20% higher than on the web.

Tie ups with restaurants

At present, we have 12,000 restaurants. In the next six months we will probably
be at around 15,000 restaurants across India. We believe in quality over
quantity. We have always concentrated on adding good quality res taurants,
and if we see that a restaurant is not really performing- then we take it off from our
coverage. The most important thing for us is consumer experience.

Financial Funding

In August 2010, Zomato got its first round of funding of $1million from Info
Edge, India. And in September 2011, got its second round of funding of
$3.5million from the same financier. Next year Zomato upraised its third round

of another $2.5 million from the same investor and again in early 2013, Info
Edge funded fourth round worth $10 million which gives them a 57.9% stake in
Zomato.
Seeing the future and growth of Zomato, Sequoia Capital and Info Edge, India in
November 2013 funded Zomato with $37 million. Info Edge now owned
50.1% of Zomato on an investment of INR 143 crores. The total funding raised
by Zomato till November 2013 stands at $53.5 million.

In November 2014, Zomato came up with a fresh round of funding of $60


million at a post- money valuation of ~US$660 million. This round of funding
was jointly headed by Info Edge India Limited and VY Capital, with
involvement from Sequoia Capital. This made a total funding of over US$113
million for Zomato.
Expansion
Zomato will leverage its existing reach and scale (sales team of over 300
people, 5000 odd advertisers) to fast track its growth in this space. Setting
ambitious targets, Zomato claims to bring over 10,000 restaurants in its food
ordering network in the next three months and also start processing over 40,000
orders a day in the near term. And why not? “Given that we have over 400,000
people who visit our India section every day, this shouldn’ t be too hard,”

“We will invest $50 million in the business in India over the next year or
so,” he continues. “This will be our fastest ramp up for any business in any
geography ever.”
Zomato plans to make money from this new service via a cut of each order, but
the exact size of its fee will be based on feedback from customers directly.
In the case of a five star rating, Zomato will take a 7.5 percent commission
fee. But that cut will rise to a maximum of 15 percent for the lowest customer
feedback. Thus the best experience and value for customers will be the key
focus.
“We will own the customer experience on the tech end, as the platform, the
delivery and logistics will be owned by the restaurants. ”

Order rate

The company works with more than 150 vendors to provide shipments across
175 cities. It averages about 9,000 deliveries daily. “We not only provide for
shipments and deliveries, but also warehousing facilities where the company
stocks and racks the products for the vendors,” said Bharati. In addition,
Delivery provides all kinds of retailers, even small businesses, technology
solutions to integrate all channels of sale. These include offline, online,
social media, mobile and voice solutions that allow sellers t manage
stores and integrate delivery with market needs.

Future strategy

Delivery is looking to expand to 250 cities, 30 delivery centres and targeting


revenue of Rs.250 crore for the fiscal year 2015 - 16. International expansion is
part of its future strategy.

App reviews

Zomato, the popular online and mobile restaurant guide, has updated its iOS app, completely
overhauling the user interface and has added new features.

The updated Zomato app offers a much simpler user interface, in line with the resecnt redesign of the
Zomato website, with the home screen offering large swappable images of nearby restaurants that lead to
their respective listings, in addition to options to browse restaurants and search for them by entering
keywords for name, location, cuisine or dish.
The Browse Restaurants option takes you to a menu that offers mood-based recommendations. So, you can
select if you're looking to get food home delivered, going out for a meal, going out for drinks or just
catching up with friends. Selecting the location is the next step, folowing which, the app offers a list of
restaurants that match the criteria.

based on the distance from your current location. You can apply additional filters such as ratings, whether
the restaurant is open at the time of the search, cuisine, budget and other aspects.

Conclusion

Bangalore is also called foodie’s paradise because of vast variety of foods and
eatables available with a touch of uniqueness and tradition. Popular cuisines in
Bangalore includes traditional vegetarian (south Indian & North Indian,
Chinese, Thai, Arabic (Mughlai & Hyderabadi) .

A survey done by FoodPanda.in states that Bangalore being the Silicon


Valley of India with a large population of young working professionals beats
other cities when it comes to ordering food between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. with 18
percent of the total orders across India coming from the city.

The survey also reveals that

o Italian cuisine is the most preferred choice for food in between meals at 32
percent, it is closely followed by Chinese (24 percent) and fast food (17 percent).

o Japanese and Hyderabadi cuisine seems to have lost the gourmet game by
being the last options preferred by foodies.

o Salads and Sandwiches (eight percent), Mughlai (seven percent), multi-cuisine


(three percent) and South Indian (two percent) make up the rest of the least
preferred choices with bakery items and ice cream recording only one percent of
orders placed.

This data reveals that Bangalore is known for foodies and also increasing
users of smart phones clearly indicates that for such kind of mobile food apps
will be very much fruitfu l for the expansion and establishment of these companies.
Since, Swiggy is currently serving in only 5 major cities, but seeing the
interest of the customers in the app it is trying to expand its market to all over
India gradually.
