- 3200+ restaurants serviced over the last six months
- Services now extended to all restaurants across India, irrespective of their arrangement with Zomato
As part of its commitment to empower the restaurant partner ecosystem, Zomato, India’s food ordering and delivery platform, has introduced Restaurant Services Hub, a one-stop solution to help all restaurants scale from zero to hundred. Utilizing a wide variety of vendors, Restaurant Services Hub has already serviced 3200+ restaurants over the last six months. Zomato is now extending the services to all restaurants across India, irrespective of their arrangement with Zomato.
Running a restaurant often comes with its own share of complexities, right from figuring out the ideal location and finding the ideal suppliers to getting requisite licenses and hiring the right staff. Many restaurants use vendors in order to streamline their operations, especially for specialized services like licensing and hiring, which presents an additional challenge. Finding out the right agencies, negotiating for good pricing and ensuring good quality of service is often a herculean task for them. This is tougher for small to medium sized restaurants with limited resources, experience, and access to be able to solve for these challenges.
Commenting on the initiative, Rakesh Ranjan, CEO, Food Delivery, Zomato said, “At Zomato, we are committed to exploring innovative ways to empower restaurant partners to succeed in a highly competitive market. The Restaurant Services Hub platform is only a step towards our vision of creating a full-stack solution for any restaurant owner looking to set up shop or scale their existing business. By strengthening partnerships and facilitating collaboration within the industry, we are focused on building a more resilient and inclusive ecosystem in the country.”
Currently, the following services are available on Restaurant Services Hub:
- Staffing: Hire your entire restaurant staff by selecting between two models:
- Get candidate profiles from vendors:
- 1 cr+ resumes of chefs, restaurant managers, administrative staff and more available through listed vendors
- Fully outsource your hiring process:
- Get pre-screened candidates for final selection
- Guarantee period for new hires (with assured replacement)
- Licensing essentials:
- FSSAI registration/renewal: A prerequisite for starting any restaurant service
- GST registration: Simplified tax compliance process for restaurants in India
- Trademark registration: Shields your restaurant’s identity with a trademark registration
Zomato will soon be launching multiple services such as POS integrations, hygiene audits, and more to help restaurant partners at every step of their journey right from planning, launching, operating, and scaling their restaurant business.
The Restaurant services hub can be accessed by Zomato restaurant partners through their Restaurant Partner App or Dining App.
