Amazon.com Inc stepped into the arena of food in India by launching its online food delivery operations in the country.
The service has been made live in Bengaluru. According to the app, the service is available in select pin codes of the city including parts of Bellandur, Haralur, Marathalli and Whitefield.
“We are launching Amazon Food in select Bangalore pin codes, allowing customers to order from handpicked local restaurants and cloud kitchens that pass our high hygiene certification bar,” a spokesperson said as reported by a media organization.
The launch has come at a time when the restuarant industry as well as the E-commerce companies have been hit hard by the ongoing global pandemic.
About a month back Amazon revealed that its India operations were the worst affected by the covid-19 pandemic.
