Zomato launched the District app, expanding beyond food delivery service to offer entertainment services like ticket bookings and dining reservations.
New Delhi, November 17: Zomato, the food delivery platform, has launched its new app called Zomato District for Android and iPhone users. The District app for Zomato expands beyond food delivery and introduces a platform that combines multiple entertainment services. Zomato aims to compete the platform by offering ticket bookings for events, dining reservations, and more. Users can access a variety of entertainment options by making it an all-in-one solution for those looking to explore events and activities in their city.
It is the third consumer-facing unit after the food delivery app Zomato and quick commerce firm Blinkit.

Zomato's entry into the segment could make the competition tougher for BookMyShow, which currently has a large share of the market in selling movie tickets. ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’: Deepinder Goyal Reveals How He Named His Food Delivery Platform Zomato, Also Shares Story Behind the App’s Flirty Notifications.
