Soon there be will no such thing as “delivery boys” because Zomato now plans to increase participation of women delivery by almost 10 per cent. The food delivery giant hopes to achieve this feat by the end of this year. Zomato says as of the current situation only 0.5 per cent of its delivery partners are women. The company plans to achieve the goal of reaching 10 per cent participation by the end of 2021 in cities including Bangalore, Hyderabad and Pune. “Today, we are taking our first step towards increasing the participation of women delivery partners in our fleet. To begin with, we have set ourselves a goal of reaching 10% participation by the end of 2021 starting with Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Pune. Adding more women to our delivery fleet is not as simple as just targeting more women for this job. That’s because our policies need to change in order to attract and retain more women delivery partners,” Zomato Co-founder Deepinder Goyal said in the blog.
