Days after its rival Zomato introduced the ‘Zomato Food Trends’ platform to aid its partners in making data-driven decisions, Swiggy has now announced the launch of its own dashboard. This dashboard is specifically designed to assist the restaurants on the Swiggy platform in planning their expansion strategies.

According to a statement by Swiggy, the partner restaurants will receive valuable insights from Swiggy’s data through the dashboard called Network Expansion Insights. This will assist them in making well-informed decisions when choosing the perfect location for their upcoming outlet.

“Choosing the right location is paramount for the success of any restaurant. A distance of a few kilometers can make or break an outlet’s success. Understanding this challenge, Swiggy has developed a powerful Network Expansion dashboard to help restaurants with this decision,” it added.

The platform offers restaurant partners an interface through which they can indicate their preferred cuisine, price range, and desired geographical areas. By utilizing the dashboard, they can generate a comprehensive list of potential expansion locations, which are ranked based on their viability and potential for success in various cities across the country.

Commenting on the move, Siwggy’s food marketplace’s CEO Rohit Kapoor said, “The success of our restaurant partners is the key to our platform’s growth. We’ve developed an innovative tool that gives our restaurant partners access to important data and helps them to strategically choose the ideal locations for their outlets. This empowers them to optimise their chances of success by bridging the gaps in demand and supply for specific cuisines on our platform.”

According to Swiggy, more than 100 partners have already utilized the Network Expansion Insights dashboard. This tool is now accessible to all of Swiggy’s restaurant partners in a self-serve format.

The food delivery market in the country is dominated by a Swiggy-Zomato duopoly, with the Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) gradually emerging as a potential competitor in the industry. Consequently, Zomato and Swiggy are engaged in a fierce competition, striving to expand their market share and constantly devising strategies to surpass each other.

Earlier this year, just ahead of Zomato’s planned announcement of its financial results for the quarter ending March 2023, the CEO of Swiggy made a statement revealing that their food delivery business had achieved profitability by March 2023.

Meanwhile, in Q4 FY23, Zomato reported that its core business turned adjusted EBITDA positive, excluding the quick commerce platform Blinkit.

Swiggy is currently exploring the possibility of introducing a co-branded credit card in collaboration with HDFC Bank. In the past, Zomato had a similar offering in partnership with RBL Bank, but they decided to discontinue it earlier this year.

The banquet featured an exquisite full vegetarian spread, specially prepared to cater to the Prime Minister's dietary preferences.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi embarked on a one-day visit to the United Arab Emirates, during which a sumptuous banquet was organized by UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan to honor him. Notably, the banquet featured an exquisite full vegetarian spread, specially prepared to cater to the Prime Minister’s dietary preferences. On Saturday, July 15, Prime Minister Modi arrived in Abu Dhabi, following his visit to Paris where he had the privilege of celebrating France’s Bastille Day as a distinguished guest. As a gesture of warm hospitality, Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan personally greeted Prime Minister Modi upon his arrival at the airport.

A grand banquet was organized at the Qasr-al-Watan presidential palace in the UAE to honor the presence of the Prime Minister. The culinary affair commenced with a delightful salad consisting of Charles wheat and dates, accompanied by an assortment of fresh, locally sourced organic vegetables. As the starters, the Prime Minister was treated to a delectable dish of grilled vegetables smothered in a rich masala sauce. Meanwhile, the esteemed Indian dignitaries savored a combination of black lentils and local harees (wheat), complemented by tantalizing cauliflower and carrot tandoori, served as the main course. To conclude the meal on a sweet note, the dessert featured a selection of seasonal, locally grown fruits.

“All meals are vegetarian and prepared with vegetable oils, and contain no dairy or egg products,” read the note on menu for the banquet.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed his gratitude to his counterpart in the UAE for the gracious hospitality extended to him and the splendid ceremonial welcome organized at the airport.

“Grateful to Crown Prince HH Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan for welcoming me at the airport today,” PM Modi wrote on Twitter.

As part of his visit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and officials from the UAE will engage in comprehensive discussions concerning global matters. They will also focus on enhancing bilateral relations by strengthening the trade agreement that became effective in May 2022, as stated by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA).

“I look forward to the deliberations with HH Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, which will further deepen India-UAE cooperation,” PM Modi tweeted.

During Prime Minister Modi’s visit to the United Arab Emirates, the iconic Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building and a significant symbol of Dubai, was adorned with the vibrant colors of the Indian flag and a projected image of PM Modi. Additionally, a warm message extending a heartfelt welcome to the Prime Minister in the Gulf State was prominently displayed. As part of the visit, India and the UAE are anticipated to declare the initiation of a payment mechanism using the Indian rupee and Emirati dirham, facilitating the settlement of bilateral trade between the two nations.

Viral outrage: YouTuber shocked by INR 193 Maggi noodles at airport, netizens react

The inexpensive and convenient 2-minute Maggi packets have gained popularity as a go-to solution for satisfying hunger or indulging in instant noodle cravings. However, if you decide to enjoy them at the airport, be prepared for a significant dent in your wallet. Sejal Sud, an entrepreneur and YouTuber, recently took to Twitter to express her astonishment at the exorbitant prices of this humble snack in airport establishments. Her tweet quickly went viral, sparking a lively online debate among netizens.

“The saga began with Sejal Sud tweeting about purchasing a plate of Maggi noodles. ‘I just bought Maggi for INR 193 at the airport, and I don’t know how to react. Why would anyone sell something like Maggi at such an inflated price,’ she said in the post on social media.” The content creator also attached her bill with the tweet.

Her post went viral in a flash, garnering over 736,000 views to date. Users, both frustrated with the exorbitant price tags on airport food and eager to delve into the economics of demand and revenue generation, joined the discussion.

Agreeing with Sud and lamenting costly items at the Airport, one user said, “also, forget about cooked food, did you check the price of the water bottle? 750ml will easily cost INR 60 (minimum).”

Another user, however, pointed out that the cost may not be so unreasonable when the factors affecting the price are considered. “Ma’am, Maggi costs INR 50, but to sell the same at the airport, it costs a lot of money as the cafe which sells Maggi needs to pay a huge deposit to set up that place, pay huge rent and also some part of the revenue to the airport. And on top of that, pay the staff who make Maggi and get some profit for their investment,” the user wrote.

The debate on Twitter raged along these two lines, with the occasional humorists interjecting. For instance, one user wrote, “You could learn from us Gujaratis, we always carry Thepla all over the world.”

Although there was no unanimous agreement on whether Maggi was overpriced, the initial tweet sparked a lively and engaging conversation.

Restaurant in Bihar faces INR 3,500 penalty for failing to serve sambar with special masala dosa

In a recent incident in Bihar, a restaurant found itself in hot water after failing to serve sambar alongside its renowned “Special Masala Dosa.” The consequence of this omission was a hefty penalty of INR 3,500. While it is customary for dosas to be accompanied by sambar and chutney, this specific eatery in Buxar overlooked the traditional serving, resulting in a legal dispute.

On August 15, 2022, lawyer Manish Gupta made a delightful choice to celebrate his birthday by treating himself to a scrumptious masala dosa from the renowned Namak restaurant.

Having paid INR 140 for the special treat, his excitement grew as he opened the packed dosa, only to be disappointed by the absence of the customary sambar. Feeling outraged by this oversight, he immediately headed to the restaurant to inquire about the missing sambar.

The restaurant owner’s reported response left much to be desired. In a dismissive manner, he allegedly retorted, “Do you want to buy the whole restaurant for INR 140?”

Not finding satisfaction, Gupta opted to initiate legal proceedings by serving a notice to the restaurant. Unfortunately, the owner remained unresponsive, prompting Gupta to further escalate the matter by lodging a formal complaint with the District Consumer Commission.

Following an 11-month period of anticipation, the Division Bench of the Consumer Commission, headed by Chairman Ved Prakash Singh and accompanied by member Varun Kumar, rendered a verdict of negligence against the restaurant and imposed a fine of INR 3,500.

The division bench acknowledged the “mental, physical, and economic” distress endured by Manish Gupta as a result of the refusal of sambar, thus providing grounds for the imposed penalty. The fine encompassed two components: INR 1,500 for litigation expenses and INR 2,000 as the fundamental fine.

The restaurant has been given a 45-day duration by the court to make the fine payment. If the restaurant fails to comply within this specified timeframe, an additional 8% interest will be levied on the outstanding fine amount.

The public’s response to the verdict has been diverse. On one hand, there are those who consider it a fair consequence for the restaurant’s oversight. On the other hand, some contend that the penalty appears disproportionate for what they perceive as a minor issue.

Conversely, advocates of consumer rights contend that these penalties function as a deterrent, fostering accountability among businesses. They assert that the verdict serves as a vivid reminder to all enterprises to give paramount importance to customer satisfaction and uphold their commitments.

In a determined effort to address the severe environmental and ecological issues arising from the widespread usage of plastic, the government of Nagaland has implemented a comprehensive ban on single-use plastic (SUP) across the state. The objective behind this prohibition is to eliminate the detrimental impact caused by disposable plastics and promote a more sustainable and eco-friendly approach.

This is in compliance with the directives from the Central Pollution Control Board, Ministry of Environment, Forest & Climate and subsequent directives from the Urban Development Department Nagaland (UDD) as per the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986.

On Saturday, the UDD announced a ban on the production, importation, storage, distribution, sale, and usage of carry bags crafted from mod, virgin, or recycled plastic, regardless of their micron thickness.

In addition, the prohibition extends to the production, importation, storage, distribution, selling, and utilization of earbuds featuring plastic handles, plastic sticks intended for balloons, plastic flags, candy sticks, ice-cream sticks, as well as polystyrene (commonly known as Thermocol) utilized for decorative purposes.

The use of plates, cups, glasses, and various types of cutlery including forks, spoons, and knives, as well as items like straws and trays, is no longer permitted. Additionally, the practice of using wrapping or packing films around sweet boxes, invitation cards, and cigarette packets has been banned. Furthermore, plastic or poly-vinyl chloride (PVC) banners that are less than 100 microns thick and stirrers are also prohibited.

A ban on SUP has been issued, and it applies to all individuals, institutions, commercial establishments, educational institutions, offices, shops, hotels, restaurants, religious institutions or faith-based institutions, as well as central and state government departments, agencies, commissions, PSUs, missions, and militaries/paramilitaries. It is mandatory for all these entities to comply with the ban.

The UDD issued a warning, emphasizing that any violation would result in severe penalties. They announced the implementation of routine inspections to ensure compliance, and those found in breach would face substantial penalties for their actions.

Swiggy bolsters competitive edge with dedicated AI team for innovation

Jumping onto the bandwagon, Swiggy has taken a proactive approach to stay ahead of the curve. In a recent interview, Rohit Kapoor, the chief executive officer of Swiggy’s food marketplace, shared an exciting development within the company. Recognizing the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI), Swiggy has formed a dedicated team consisting of around five talented individuals. Their sole responsibility is to explore, discover, and implement innovative AI applications throughout the organization. By embracing this strategic move, Swiggy aims to revolutionize its services and solidify its position in the competitive market.

The food and grocery delivery startup has been leveraging AI to generate images of food items and provide descriptions in certain cases as part of its ongoing technological experimentation. Zomato, a major competitor based in Gurugram, has also embraced AI to enhance the customer experience and streamline their operations.

“AI is not a not an area of curiosity anymore, it is an area of active workstream. AI is also a space where we don’t know what we don’t know. So we are not taking a deterministic approach there at all saying it will be only implemented in a certain area, it’s across the business,” Kapoor said.

Although reducing operational costs through the use of AI was an achievement for Swiggy, it was not the sole objective for the startup.

“Until and unless we are boundaryless in our thinking on this one right now we’ll be making a mistake… cost is only one side of it,” Kapoor added.

In a more recent development, the company introduced WhatToEat, an innovative feature designed to enhance the experience of discovering food. This functionality enables users to explore a carefully curated selection of options tailored to their mood and cravings, revolutionizing the way they find and enjoy their meals.

Swiggy has implemented AI technology, primarily in the form of bots, to assist with addressing customer queries.

“Every company has to automate customer complaints at some point and we do it where it makes sense…Can we do better refunds? Yes, we should do much better with refunds,” Kapoor said.

However, he emphasized that customer refunds constitute an inconsequential figure in the company’s profit and loss (P&L) statement, and they will not have a significant impact beyond a certain threshold.

“…refunds are a careful thing to do. Because 99 percent of the refunds are genuine but that one percent will try to misuse the system at times and we must not lose money where nothing was due. We can of course optimise refunds and improve our profitability. But is this a big swing on our P&L? The answer is no,” Kapoor, who spends four hours every weekend – on websites like Midjourney and the like – learning about AI, concluded.

There’s nothing quite like ending a meal on a sweet note—it never fails to bring joy. Whether it’s indulging in a handful of irresistible chocolates, savoring a tub of your favorite ice cream, or delighting in traditional Indian mithai, desserts have a magical way of brightening our day. Among the many delightful sweet treats, street food sweets hold a special allure. The freshly prepared sugary delights found on roadside stalls possess an undeniable charm and entice us with their irresistible flavors. While you may have already experienced the pleasure of tasting numerous popular Indian sweets, did you know that one of them has achieved recognition as one of the world’s best street food sweets?

TasteAtlas, an esteemed online travel and culinary guide originating from Croatia, has recently unveiled its highly-anticipated collection of the “Finest Street Food Sweets Worldwide,” presenting a diverse array of delectable choices to discover. Notably, several Indian sweets have been recognized and celebrated on this prestigious list. Making its mark, Mysore Pak, a delightful confection originating from southern India, proudly secured the 14th rank. Another iconic treat, kulfi, the beloved Indian frozen dessert, claimed a well-deserved 18th position. Adding to India’s sweet glory, the luscious kulfi falooda, a beloved variation of kulfi served with vermicelli and flavored syrup, was honored as the 32nd best street food sweet globally.

Securing the coveted top spot on the list is none other than the pastel de nata, a classic Portuguese egg custard tart. This delectable delicacy traces its origins back to Santa Maria de Belem in Lisbon, Portugal, where resourceful Catholic monks and nuns ingeniously crafted it using leftover egg yolks before the 18th century. The evolution of this treat took a delightful turn when the monks and nuns collaborated with a local bakery, leading to the commercial production and widespread availability of the beloved pastel de nata.

Claiming the impressive second place on the esteemed list is serabi, a delightful street food sweet hailing from Java, Indonesia. These petite Indonesian pancakes are skillfully crafted using rice flour and offer a delightful culinary experience when paired with either coconut milk or shredded coconut. Serabi presents itself in both sweet and savory variations, allowing for a diverse range of taste preferences. These delectable treats can be adorned with a myriad of toppings, ranging from luscious jackfruit and decadent chocolate to ripe bananas and crunchy crushed peanuts. The versatility and flavors of serabi truly make it a beloved street food sweet in Indonesia.

Securing an impressive third position is the renowned dondurma, a Turkish ice cream with its roots tracing back to Kahramanmaras, Turkey. This exceptional frozen delight is celebrated for its remarkable resistance to melting, making it an extraordinary treat to savor. Dondurma’s distinctive feature lies in its dense and delightfully chewy texture, adding an enjoyable element to each mouthful. The combination of its unique qualities has catapulted dondurma to great popularity, making it a cherished and sought-after street food sweet in Turkey.

Although India’s Mysore Pak, kulfi, and kulfi falooda have certainly left a lasting impression on the list of the world’s finest street food sweets, the ultimate crown belongs to Portugal’s pastel de nata. Alongside a myriad of other delectable treats from different corners of the globe, these sweet wonders consistently captivate our palates, transforming street food exploration into a thrilling culinary voyage.
