BENGALURU: Food delivery unicorns Swiggy and Zomato have enabled online processing and home delivery of alcohol in non-metros, in an attempt to diversify when their core business has been hit due to the covid-19 lockdown.
Extending this service to large metros may take a while, though. Swiggy's alcohol delivery service went live in Ranchi on Thursday, after the company obtained necessary approvals from the Jharkhand government.
The service can be availed by users under the ‘Wine Shops’ category on the Swiggy app. Zomato confirmed to Mint that it is looking to make this service live in major cities of Jharkhand by Friday.
