Zomato will add more cities to its Intercity Legends service

In the next months, restaurant aggregation company Zomato plans to scale its food delivery service by adding more legendary restaurants to its platform and expanding its Intercity Legends service across key cities.

In order to provide 24-hour food delivery from upscale restaurant brands across the nation, including sandesh and rosogollas from Kolkata, biryani from Hyderabad, and chole bhature from Delhi, Zomato's Intercity Legends was introduced as a pilot in Delhi in late August. Users can now access the service in Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR.

Zomato has so far added 120 restaurants from ten different cities. According to top corporate executives, the process of adding additional renowned eateries that can provide cuisine that travels well is now underway.

Now, Zomato wants to extend the service to further cities. "We are really well-informed. We hope to be in all major cities over the course of the next three months," stated the Intercity Legends head at Zomato. But he withheld the identities of the cities where the service will be offered.

Restaurants like Hotel Shadab, Meethe Miya, and Mandi@36 from Hyderabad are now listed on the app. Customers can get chicken biryani from Arsalan from Kolkata and baked rosogolla from BalaramMullick and RadharamanMullick Sweets. Along with well-known delicacies from Bengaluru, Lucknow, Chennai, and Agra, it also serves sweets from Mathura's sweet shops.

He continued, "The organization is concentrating on getting all the core KPIs and the user experience metrics right." Orders must be submitted before 4 p.m. for delivery the following day between 3 and 6 p.m.

To make delivery possible, Zomato has partnered with commercial airlines and logistics companies like Shadowfax. The price of the meal that is shown on Zomato's menu includes packaging and other transportation costs. The platform adds an additional delivery fee of £80 to the advertised price.
