Obnews Tech Desk: Popular food delivery app Zomato has launched its new “District” app and through this app, Zomato is trying to expand its global out business. Through this app, users can do movie ticket booking, event booking and table booking at resorts. That means, if you want to avail all the features on one app, then this app will remain the same. This is believed to be Zomato's third consumer-facing business and before this the company has also launched fast delivery app Zomato and QR commerce Blinkit.
For a long time, Zomato has been planning a strategy to enter the global out segment and for this purpose also wants to take advantage of the entertainment industry. The company had purchased Paytm's event and ticketing business in August 2023 for Rs 2,048 crore and strengthened its position in this sector as well.
What is the specialty of Zomato District?
Talking about Zomato's District app, many types of services are being offered in it:
- First of all, you can book movie tickets through it. In this, users will get access to many cinema houses like PVR, Inox and Cinepolis.
- Apart from this, you can also do booking of big events and other live events in it.
- Along with this, users can also take advantage of Zomato's restaurant network and make dining reservations.
Direct competition with Bookmyshow
With this, it is clearly seen that Zomato is in direct competition with Bookmyshow, which is a brand of Reliance. Now you can book tickets through Bookmyshow and it is a huge market. However, Zomato is a strong brand and is bringing new features for the users. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see how much global out business expands in the coming times.
