Business Model Innovation Through Digital Entrepreneurship: A Case of Online Food Delivery Start-Up in India
Abstract
Aggregator business network models are quickly becoming critical enablers of digital transformation across various industries and are increasingly active in service start-ups such as online food delivery. With their innovative use of digital technologies, several unconventional start-ups in the online food ordering space are upending the market. However, the industry faces fierce competition from rivals and rising consumer demand for unique experiences. Using an exploratory case study methodology, the current study investigates the case of “Zomato,” an Indian restaurant aggregator and food delivery start-up. The study aims to demonstrate how Zomato, a digital start-up, has gained a competitive advantage by changing its business model. An investigation into the Indian-based online food ordering company Zomato's business model innovation has been reported. This study shows how Zomato has differentiated itself from its competitors in the Indian food market by focusing on the nine business model canvas components. This improves our understanding of business model innovation's theoretical foundations and forerunners as a source of competitive advantage.
