A report quoted Srivats TS, VP – Marketing, Swiggy saying, “Jaipur is known for both its rich cultural and culinary heritage. Over the last few years, the city has seen a slew of exciting new eateries and cafes that have enriched its gastronomical choices further. Jaipurites are now enjoying everything from Baati Chokha to Caesar Salads.”

Swiggy has also managed some exclusive tie-ups with eating joints like jaipur’s DMB and Agrawal Caterers – who did not previously have the option of home deliveries.

To ensure that their users have access to the choicest restaurants, customers will also enjoy a wider radius of as much as six kilometers without a minimum order value.
