Swiggy is one of India’s largest online food ordering and delivery platforms. Swiggy is based in Bangalore, operating in 100 Indian cities as of March 2019. In early 2019, it expanded to general product deliveries under Swiggy Stores. The restaurants must have an FSSAI (Food Safety and Standards Authority of India) license to be listed on the Swiggy app. Swiggy does not allow partner restaurants to list on its app without an FSSAI license.
Due to the increase in popularity of online food aggregators, FSSAI mandated digital Food Business Operators (FBOs) such as Zomato, Swiggy, UberEats, etc., to obtain FSSAI licesne. Accordingly, the Food Safety and Standards (Licensing and Registration of Food Businesses) Amendment Regulations, 2018, provides that any FBO carrying out food business delivery services through e-commerce platforms must obtain an FSSAI registration/license.
Thus, it is mandatory for Swiggy and the restaurants listed on the Swiggy app to have an FSSAI licesne mandatorily. The FSSAI license will enable the food safety authorities to ensure that food delivery platforms and restaurants selling food through such platforms comply with the FSSAI regulations, rules, inspections, third-party audits and food testing processes.
The restaurants and cloud kitchens that wish to register on the Swiggy app and receive food orders should obtain FSSAI licesne based on their turnover before registering on the app. The types of FSSAI registration that a cloud kitchen and restaurant should obtain are as follows:
The documents required by restaurants and cloud kitchens to obtain the FSSAI basic registration are as follows:
