Food Tech start-up RailRestro, which offers meals ordered by train passengers, is looking to expand its services to 300 stations in the next couple of months. It currently offers its services across 220 stations across the country. RailRestro is an online food delivery service, which serves meals on trains. The company has a network of tie-ups with restaurants across the country. Customers can book food as per their choice, online, on the website, or via the app, with their PNR number.
According to Manish Chandra, co-founder and director of RailRestro, the pandemic has brought a huge difference in the lifestyle of people and they have become more cautious about what they consume. This has led to increased traction in meal bookings on its app. “With the kind of traction it is seeing, RailRestro plans to scale up presence to over 300 stations in the next one-to-two months and further to 450 by the end of 2022,” Chandra said in a report by BusinessLine.
The company is conducting a pilot for picking up its own deliveries from restaurants. Currently the majority of the restaurants arrange for delivery of food at their end but now RailRestro is looking to add its fleet of delivery staff to ensure that the food reaches the customers on time. It claims to have served more than 30 lakh customers with 60 lakh meals from the time of its inception till now. It has close to 30-35 per cent repeat customers.
