Uber Eats to start its services in Visakhapatnam

Food ordering and delivery app Uber Eats is all set to launch in the cities of Visakhapatnam and Coimbatore this month. The app will now be spreading its reach to 6 cities in South with the latest additions. Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Kochi are the other South Indian cities where Uber Eats is currently serving its customers. Other major Indian cities include Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Jaipur, Gurgaon, Chandigarh, and Pune.

“Over the years, consumers in the South have displayed a preference for traditional food with a global twist, while traditional food culture is still strongly felt with the presence of multiple street joints serving Idlis and Rasam and likes of the same, a huge number of eateries and food chains that serve ‘glocal’ palates has increased in the past couple of years. Owing to this, there is a huge opportunity for Eats to be successful in the Southern cities of India. We are confident that tapping on lesser-known yet upcoming cities like Coimbatore and Vizag will benefit our presence as well as allow southerners to now enjoy their food from the comfort of their own homes and without any hassle,” head of Uber Eats India, Bhavik Rathod, was quoted as saying by ANI news.

It has been reported that Tibbs Frankie, Cream Stone, Drunken Monkey are a few of the restaurants that would be available through the app in the initial phase.

The food delivery app is expected to be a welcome addition to Visakhapatnam’s fledgling sector.
