CURRENT MARKETING MIX-

 Product:
Swiggy is a well-known food and beverage delivery service that serves customers who have placed an
order. It has provided a single point of contact for a wide range of eateries and food parlors. A customer
may now select from virtual menus of neighbouring restaurants and place an online order. Swiggy has
made ordering meals and having them delivered swiftly a breeze for clients. The company receives
roughly 1.59 million orders per day from its estimated 1.28 lakh restaurants on its network. Swiggy isn't
accountable for the food's quality because it only moves it from one person to another.
A complaint usually takes up to the restaurant in question to settle. The company encourages restaurant
advertising and reviews for internet delivery. Swiggy has introduced SwiggySelect, an On-Time-Delivery
option that pays out cash if an order does not come inside the chosen time frame.
How to order from swiggy?
A customer may visit the Swiggy website or download the Swiggy app, browse online menus of
restaurants in his or her neighbourhood, place an order, and, if everything goes well, receive a rapid
delivery. Payment can be paid either online or at the time of delivery.

 Pricing:
Swiggy has a huge crew, which allows it to offer no-minimum-order policies to its consumers. As a

$2 million in Swiggy's Series A round. Norwest Venture Partners and an undisclosed investment entity
both contributed $16.5 million in Series B funding.

expenses, refunds, and other costs.

producing around 25% of revenues in two years.

algorithms. Swiggy has hired Shadow fax Technologies, a third-party delivery company, for part-time
distribution in Delhi and Bengaluru.

 Promotion:

to increase brand awareness. It mostly relies on word-of-mouth advertising, and satisfied customers are its
most effective marketing tools, as they recommend the firm to their friends and family. Swiggy has
established an online marketing approach, promoting innovative and engaging ad campaigns such as
#SingWithSwiggy and #DiwaliGharAayi on social media sites like as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram,
YouTube, and Pinterest.

which it then used as the basis for a promotional strategy to raise brand recognition.

commercials normally last 10 to 15 seconds, and they simply highlight how Indian's resort to Swiggy for

Zomato vs Swiggy
“With Zomato Market, Zomato entered into the market in 80 cities. Product lines are their preferred method of
action, and they are positioned below so that they can be reached. When they tap, it tends to take individuals to
the listing page, where they can discover what's really available. Whenever the goods are not available within a
week of discovering, the consumer becomes frustrated as they jump from one platform to platform looking for
grocery shopping.
Swiggy, on the other hand, has chosen a better approach, adhering to the conditions are conducive principle and
addressing the most prevalent desires and needs. As a result, the consumer tends to spend low time discovering
and more time getting what they want. Human-Computer Interaction (HCImain )'s aim is to reduce tension when
a user performs a task.
Zomato launched initiatives to aid restaurants and delivery partners. Because the consumer must purchase the
contentious gold monthly subscription, this can be classified as strategic empathy. As a result, a part of the
subscription fee would be made a donation to the restaurant of one ‘s choice. Customers receive the gold benefits
once the restaurants are operational.
Meanwhile, Swiggy started a campaign to endorse various government agencies, non-governmental organisations
(NGOs), as well as other entities, and dispersed food in COVID-19 makeshift camps. The claim was that 20
people could be fed for just Rs.600, which goes back to the "Keeping the User Informed" principle.
“There comes a point where they must choose between business, safety, and what they must encourage. Both
have chosen to take an encouraging strategy to iterating to responding to right questions within just a small real
estate space. Swiggy had also achieved success by repeating back and forth about how much they keep on their

delivery services because it is exiting the grocery business. Faced with a large appear to be recovering after 4
months. According to ET, an increase in order value has resulted in a 60–65 percent rise in the level of sales. So it
would be safe to say that food delivery is back up and running.”
