Zomato is rethinking its strategy to increase revenue by evolving its business model to benefit both Zomato and its sellers.
Zomato's consumer growth in urban areas has plateaued, facing competition from Swiggy, Ola Foods, and ONDC.
A focus shift is needed from increasing app installs to creating a model that fosters growth for both Zomato and sellers.
Zomato's seller ecosystem, especially medium AOV cloud kitchens, has potential for a new model allowing stable demand and revenue growth.
Medium-scale events present opportunities for cloud kitchens to increase brand recognition and secure new customers outside of standard delivery.
The proposed model benefits Zomato, sellers, and consumers by providing stable demand, revenue growth, and new customer acquisition channels.
This new perspective sees Zomato as a B2B platform for food entrepreneurs, aiming to support the growth of cloud kitchens with diverse revenue streams.
The future of food tech may involve innovative behind-the-scenes business models, with platforms like Zomato taking a leading role.
