Foodtech major Swiggy has rolled out a new offering, DeskEats, specifically designed to cater to working professionals across India.
The offering is now available in more than 7,000 tech parks, business centres and corporate complexes across 30 cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Gurugram, Pune and Kolkata, the company said in a statement.
Swiggy claims that DeskEats spans nearly 7 Lakh menu items from more than 2 Lakh restaurants. The feature can be accessed by typing "office" or "work" within the Swiggy app.
DeskEats is structured around curated collections such as value combos, stress munchies, deadline desserts, sip-tastic fuel, one-handed grabbies, healthy nibbles, and teamwork bites, with each category designed to address a specific workday scenario, be it a solo desk lunch or a quick snack between meetings.
"DeskEats is tailored to meet the evolving needs of consumers seeking a hassle-free food delivery experience during their workday, right at their desks," the company said in its statement.
The development comes three months after the launch of Swiggy's Corporate Rewards programme that allows companies to offer curated Swiggy benefits to their employees as part of workplace incentives or wellness initiatives.
Swiggy claims that the programme has generated positive feedback, reaching 14,000 companies, with 1.5 lakh employees.
"Today's corporate professionals are more time-strapped and choice-rich than ever before. With the launch of DeskEats, we've reimagined how food delivery fits into a busy, high-performance workday," said Swiggy's food strategy, customer experience and new initiatives vice president Deepak Maloo.
To meet the demand of working professionals, Swiggy's competitor Zomato last year launched a feature called Zomato for Enterprise (ZFE) to facilitate business-related orders by corporate employees.
Zomato's service is aimed at simplifying food expense management for both companies and their employees.
Swiggy is on a launch spree lately and it's not limited to food delivery service but also going beyond that. The foodtech major in June launched a travel and lifestyle concierge service through a new app called 'Crew'.
Crew is a personalised concierge app designed to manage a wide range of everyday and special tasks for users. Sources told Inc42 that Crew has been built based on the learnings from Swiggy's experiment with a similar premium concierge service last year, Rare Life.
Earlier this year, Swiggy also rolled out its professional services marketplace app, Pyng. While the company has been actively experimenting with new services, it has also suspended its delivery service, Swiggy Genie.
Last week, Swiggy reported its financials for the first quarter of the financial year 2025-26 (Q1 FY26). The company's loss rose in Q1 as it continued to invest to expand its quick commerce operations.
The company's net loss zoomed 96% to INR 1,197 Cr in the June quarter from INR 611 Cr in the year-ago quarter. On a sequential basis, the company's loss grew 11% from INR 1,081 Cr.
However, Swiggy's top line saw strong growth. Operating revenue surged 54% to INR 4,961 Cr in Q1 FY26 from INR 3,222 Cr in the year-ago period. On a QoQ basis, this marked a 12% increase from INR 4,410 Cr.
While Instamart saw its loss almost triple to INR 797 Cr during the quarter under review from INR 280 Cr a year ago, the increase was a mere 3.3% on a sequential basis from INR 771 Cr.
