Chileans will now ‘taste’ India’s Zomato

Restaurant discovery services provider Zomato on Friday announced its foray into Chile, offering information for about 7,000 restaurants in Santiago.

‘Chileans can now browse through restaurant information in Spanish and English, read and write restaurant reviews, as well as build a personal network of trusted foodies,’ Zomato said in a statement.

It will also offer an exciting prospect for business owners to reach out to and engage with a highly targeted audience, it added.

‘With its rich dining culture and high internet and smartphone penetration, Chile is a very promising market for us. We have earmarked $2 million (over Rs 12 crore) for our expansion in the country,’ Zomato founder and CEO Deepinder Goyal said.

The information was available on Zomato's website from Friday while the mobile app will be available after a week.
