Swiggy and Eternal Pursue Different Strategies to Expand India's Food Delivery Market
India's food delivery market is evolving as major players Swiggy and Zomato's parent company Eternal adopt distinct strategies to attract new users amid slowing growth. Swiggy focuses on affordability through its Toing app leveraging existing infrastructure, while Eternal invests in Bistro, a vertically integrated kitchen model to offer low-cost meals. New entrants like Rapido's Ownly and Flipkart also aim to disrupt the market by lowering restaurant commissions. Industry observers note uncertainty about the long-term sustainability of these approaches.
