Bangalore: Swiggy, India’s pioneering on-demand convenience platform, is set to disrupt the food delivery landscape once again with the launch of **Bolt – Food Delivered in 10 Minutes**. This innovative offering aims to deliver quick-to-prepare meals from popular restaurants and quick-service restaurants (QSRs) within a 2 km radius of consumers, focusing on dishes that can be served swiftly without compromising on taste, freshness, or quality.
Bolt features a curated selection of highly popular items, including burgers, hot and cold beverages, breakfast favorites, and biryani, alongside ready-to-pack treats like ice cream, sweets, and snacks. Customers will have access to a diverse range of well-known national brands such as KFC, McDonald’s, Burger King, Baskin Robbins, Starbucks, and Chaayos, as well as beloved local establishments like Karachi Bakery and G Pulla Reddy Sweets in Hyderabad, MM Mithaiwala in Mumbai, Bhartiya Jalpan and Anand Sweets in Bangalore, Sethi Ice-cream in Delhi, and Irani Cafe in Pune.
The success of Bolt hinges on strategic partnerships with restaurants known for their quick order turnarounds, emphasizing dishes that require minimal to no preparation. Importantly, delivery partners will not be made aware of the distinction between Bolt and regular orders, ensuring they are neither penalized nor incentivized based on delivery speed.
Rohit Kapoor, CEO of Swiggy’s Food Marketplace, stated, “Bolt is the next evolution in our mission to provide unmatched convenience. Ten years ago, Swiggy revolutionized food delivery by cutting average wait times to 30 minutes. Now, we’re reducing that wait even further for frequently ordered items like coffee, burgers, ice cream, and biryani, partnering with trusted restaurants to deliver the best food in just 10 minutes.”
Currently, Bolt – Food in 10 Minutes is operational in key locations across six major cities: Hyderabad, Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Chennai, and Bangalore. The service is expected to expand into additional areas in the coming weeks.
To enhance user experience, the ‘Bolt – Food in 10 mins’ option will be prominently displayed on the Food page of the Swiggy app, making it easier for customers to access this speedy delivery service.
As Swiggy continues to innovate and enhance its offerings, the introduction of Bolt is poised to set new standards in the food delivery industry, catering to the growing demand for speed and convenience among consumers.
