Deepinder Goyal wrote in the post, ‘Compared to all the countries of the world, India has the highest percentage of vegetarians. We have received the most important feedback from them. That is, they pay very special attention to how their food is cooked and how their food is handled.
To address the dietary preferences of vegetarians, we are today launching a ‘Pure Veg Fleet’ (a separate team of delivery people) on Zomato as well as a ‘Pure Veg Mode’ for customers with 100% dietary preferences vegetarian.
This feature will be rolled out in phases across the country over the next few weeks. We are committed to listening to our customers and serving our community in the best way possible.

The CEO of Zomato said that only restaurants serving vegetarian food will be available in the ‘Pure Veg Mode’. Restaurants offering non-vegetarian items will not be included in this manner. Deepinder said that this mode does not fulfill any religious and political preferences.
Deliveries in Zomato’s Pure Veg fleet will use green delivery boxes instead of the standard red delivery boxes and will only fulfill orders from pure veg restaurants.
