From 0 orders on Day 1 to 300,000 Restaurant Partners Today: Swiggy’s CEO and founder Sriharsha Majety reflects on the company’s 10-year journey
Mumbai, 28th August 2024: As Swiggy, India’s leading on-demand convenience platform, celebrates its 10th anniversary this August, CEO and Co-founder Sriharsha Majety reflects on a decade of transformation and growth. In his recent LinkedIn post, Sriharsha shared his insights on the company’s remarkable journey and expressed gratitude to the restaurant partners whose early support was pivotal in making Swiggy a household name across the country.
He shared that Swiggy started with zero orders on Day 1, receiving its first-ever order just the following day, marking the start of an incredible journey.
When we launched Swiggy on August 6, 2014, we ended the day with zero orders. The next day, we got our first-ever order, marking the true beginning of our journey. Amongst our earliest partners was Truffles, which started with just two orders a day on Swiggy. Since then, they've done as many as 7261 orders in a single day, showcasing how far we've come together.
As we celebrate our 10th anniversary this month, I had the pleasure of reconnecting with partners like Nathan (Hole in the Wall), Ankeet (Anand Sweets), Avinash (Truffles), Sameer (Chinita), Pavandeep (Tadka Singh), Chethan (Tandoor Hut), Kaashif (Luckhnow Street), Roger (Via Milano) and Kashyap (Gramin) who believed in us when food delivery was still an emerging concept. Their trust and partnership have been invaluable, and they definitely are like core founding team members that helped create food delivery in India as we know it today :)
Today, we proudly partner with over 300,000 restaurants. Much of our success is thanks to those early adopters who didn’t just join us but became core to our journey. Their support helped make ‘Swiggy it’ a household phrase across the country.
Looking ahead, we’re thrilled about the next decade of collaboration, innovation, and growth. Together, we will continue to lead with passion and deliver unparalleled convenience to our customers.
Thank you for being the heart of our incredible journey. The best is yet to come! 🚀✨
