Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal recently gave a glimpse into the bustling "war room" at the company's headquarters as food orders surged on New Year's Eve. In a tweet, Goyal shared images showcasing Zomato executives and team members prepared with refreshments like cans of coke, gearing up for the massive influx of traffic on the platform on December 31.
With a note of appreciation, Goyal highlighted the significant role of the 3.2 lakh+ delivery partners from Zomato and Blinkit, mentioning, "Thank you for helping the nation celebrate."
The tweet also revealed staggering statistics, noting that at 8:06 p.m., a staggering 8,422 orders were placed, averaging 140 orders every second. Goyal expressed a light-hearted curiosity about a monumental order from Kolkata where someone ordered 125 items in a single order, expressing his eagerness to join the party virtually.
The tweet not only shed light on the behind-the-scenes efforts to manage the skyrocketing demand but also celebrated the dedication and hard work of the delivery partners contributing to the festive celebrations across India.
