Ola may close its food delivery unit Ola Cafe soon

India's largest taxi-aggregators Ola, run by ANI Technologies Pvt. Ltd, may shut down its food deliver service and grocery service.

This came after a year of launch of ‘Ola Cafe’ and ‘Ola Store’ amid slow expansion and struggles to generate customer demand for the business units, reported Mint.

Till now ‘Ola Cafe’ was available in cities like Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Delhi.

While Ola Store currently operates in Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Gurgaon.

Not only this, Flipkart recently announced to close down its hyper-local service 'Nearby'.

The app was launched five months back in order to experiment grocery delivery in Bengaluru.

In last five months around five food delivery players have closed their operations wholly or in cities they were not performing well.
