Introduction of TastyKhana
Tastykhana has revolutionized the online food ordering industry in India since its emergence in the year 2007. Tastykhana came up with an idea of delivering food across various cities from number of restaurants. Currently, it offers food service from more than 9000 restaurants across India in various cities. Till date, it has delivered over 600000+ orders online.
Online food ordering industry is among one of the fastest growing industry in India and people are now getting towards online ordering mode rather than using phone calls for food ordering. And this is a great opportunity for the team to grab those phone call users.
This is a great achievement for a company which just started with an individual idea of Mr Sachin Bhardwaj, who himself was once searching online for restaurants and could not find anything much of his use over internet. And this only factor inspired him to open his own food service providing website.
Started with a personal savings of mere Rs. 2,00,000 , TastyKhana slowly became popular. With their ultimate services, Tastykhana kept on growing and landed among the group of foodie people quickly. Soon after in 2013, a German portal “Delivery Hero” came up with Tastykhana for food delivery service and invested $5 million in it. Now, Tastykhana merged with Foodpanda to provide better food ordering services and experience to their customers.
In November 2014, Foodpanda had acquired TastyKhana.in in a process with Delivery Hero which finally has the outcome showing the merging of Tastykhana into Foodpanda in March 2015.
