Swiggy looks to launch ‘cloud kitchen’ business

Online food delivery start-up Swiggy (Bundl Technologies Pvt. Ltd) is in talks to hire a new chief operating officer (COO) for its main marketplace business and is also in the process of building out a new “cloud kitchen” vertical for which it is expected to hire a new chief executive officer, according to three people aware of the developments.

Swiggy is currently interviewing several candidates for both positions, and has shortlisted executives from companies such as Reckitt Benckiser (India) Ltd for the role of CEO of the new business, said the people mentioned above. All three executives requested anonymity as these discussions are private.

“As India’s leading food ordering and delivery platform, Swiggy is continuously looking to strengthen our team, including leadership, to support and enable our growth and increased scale of business. Our vision is to change the way India eats, and Swiggy will continue to drive innovation through various initiatives that not only benefit our customers, but also the marketplace,” said a Swiggy spokeswoman in an email.
