The food tech platform Swiggy, which is preparing for an IPO, has introduced Bolt, a service for delivering meals and drinks within 10 minutes.
Bolt is currently active in important areas of six major cities: Hyderabad, Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, and Bangalore. Over the next few weeks, it will be extended to more locations. Bolt provides fast food delivery from specific restaurants located within a 2 km radius of the customer.
"The service will continue to expand into additional areas in the coming weeks," Swiggy stated.
Bolt provides well-liked options such as hamburgers, hot drinks, cold drinks, morning meals, and biryani that need minimal prep time.
The focus will also be on meals that are ready to be packed, including ice cream, sweets, and snacks, as mentioned by Swiggy.
It's worth noting that delivery partners are not made aware of the difference between Bolt and regular orders. This means that they are not rewarded or penalised based on delivery time, as shared by the major food tech company.
Rohit Kapoor, CEO of Swiggy's Food Marketplace, said: "Bolt is the next evolution in our mission to provide unmatched convenience. Ten years ago, Swiggy revolutionised food delivery by cutting average wait times to 30 minutes".
"Now, we're reducing that wait even further for frequently ordered items like coffee, burgers, ice cream, and biryani, partnering with trusted restaurants to deliver the best food in just 10 minutes."
