Swiggy turns five – the unicorn has gone from 6 delivery partners in 1 city to 200,000 in 290 cities

In the 5 years of its journey, Swiggy has also managed to whip up some pretty interesting delivery stories. Its most loyal customer is a Bengaluru based user who has ordered through Swiggy 17,962 times while another consumer once ordered ice creams worth ₹76,257.

And of course, India’s most favourite dish Biryani too comes into the picture – the foodtech unicorn claims it gets 43 biryani orders per minute. This is followed by the most number of orders for dosas and the burgers.

Subway, Domino’s, McDonald’s and Burger King have the highest number of orders in the last 5 years. This comes in as a surprise with Domino’s and McDonald’s also running their own delivery service. In fact, Domino’s still uses its own delivery executives even for orders from food aggregators.
