FOOD PLAYS A VERY IMPORTANT role in Indian households and helps build a foundation for family bonding, identity, tradition, culture, and celebrations. Indian food offers a vast range of regional flavours, with dishes and preferences changing every few kilometres. While North Indian food focuses on wheat-based breads, South Indian food is heavily based on rice and fermented rice-lentil batters. Every region has its own flavours and food that people love to enjoy.

To embrace these food habits and help people eat wherever they want and whenever they want, food delivery apps started in India. Many Indian cities and states have access to these apps, and people can order food from wherever they want.
