In the face of a pandemic that hurt the F&B sector financially, it had to innovate to stay afloat. The luxury segment within the sector even went the extra mile. To offer unforgettable and royal experiences the population that could afford the five-star life at home, many hotels started delivering curated meal boxes during festivals, sent chefs and bartenders to people’s homes, and even tied up with food delivery aggregators.
Qmin, a culinary and food delivery platform, is one such innovation by the Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL). The IHCL and its subsidiaries include Taj, SeleQtions, Vivanta and Ginger hotels.
