Food Delivery in 10 minutes: A new uproar has started regarding apps that deliver food in 10 minutes. Hotel and restaurant owners have announced a fight against them. Both these apps, Blinkit Bistro and Swiggy Snacks, have been accused of using restaurant data to expand their brands. Have demanded action against this from the Union Commerce Ministry. Hotel-restaurant federations have alleged that Zomato and Swiggy are using the items and rate lists of partner restaurants through the aggregator platform to promote Blinkit Bistro and Swiggy snack brands.
Asked for an appointment with the Union Minister
Pradeep Shetty, Vice President of The Federation of Hotel and Restaurant Association of India, said that we have sought time from the Union Commerce Ministry to present our views. The union is also trying to meet Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal next week. We are urging implementation of the e-commerce rule in its letter and spirit. Both e-commerce players cannot develop their own private product brands in place of product delivery from partner restaurants. Pradeep Shetty told Moneycontrol that they should remain only marketplace and should not promote any private brand. The Hotel and Restaurant Association of India is an organization of 60 thousand hotel and five lakh restaurant owners in the country.
Preparation to go to Competition Commission of India also
National Restaurant Association of India, another organization of five lakh restaurants, is also preparing to approach the Competition Commission of India against Zomato and Swiggy. The National Restaurant Association has accused Zomato and Swiggy of violating anti-competitive norms, Copyright Act and other laws. President Sagar Daryani said that these aggregators should enable restaurants for quick delivery. Whereas they are trying to destroy us by selling products similar to ours.
