Zomato has announced a zero-tolerance policy on the sale of 'analogue dishes' (also known as synthetic or imitation dishes) by restaurants listed on its platform. We also reserve the right to remove any listing that violates the rules. Zomato said in a statement on Monday that the restaurant partners who have acknowledged the presence of 'analog dairy' in their dishes have been removed from the platform with immediate effect. The company said that the purpose of this step is to ensure more transparency and better quality of food. Also asked to investigate: Under this policy, restaurant partners have been asked to take positive steps immediately. This may include switching to natural dairy products or, if immediate change is not possible, removing analog dairy items from your menu. Restaurants have also been asked to check product labels and ingredient information provided by suppliers to verify the ingredients used and to ensure that the products listed on Zomato are accurate. The company said that restaurant partners who do not follow the rules will be removed from the platform. This policy is part of Zomato's broader vision to focus on providing healthier food options and greater transparency to its customers, in line with applicable regulations. This is the objective of Zomato. Zomato CEO Aditya Mangala said that our main objective at Zomato is to provide better food to as many people as possible. This means protecting customers' health and maintaining clear standards for what our restaurant partners list and serve. This policy reflects the same commitment that we are fulfilling in collaboration with partners who have similar thinking.
