Food delivery major Swiggy will layoff a part of its private brand kitchen team, renegotiate contracts with landlords, while discontinuing operations at a few of its centres due to coronavirus outbreak.
According to reports, the Bengaluru-based player is planning to cut over 1,000 jobs in its private brands business next month amid a larger downsizing drive at the company which may result in more job cuts going forward.
The food delivery player has confirmed the development on downsizing private kitchen staff without disclosing the number of people likely to be affected by the retrenchment.
“As the lockdown gets further extended, we are evaluating various means to stay nimble and focused on growth and profitability across our kitchens,” a Swiggy spokesperson said.
These discussions to downsize private brands have been on since February.
