Zomato logoIndia’s restaurant search engine Zomato.com has launched in five new cities, in a move to fulfill its global expansion plans and make restaurant search convenient. The new cities include Brasilia, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, and Porto Alegre in Brazil; and Hamilton, in New Zealand.

With this new launch, Zomato makes it presence felt in 12 international cities since its Series D round.

Speaking about the move in a statement, Deepinder Goyal, CEO of Zomato said – “Alongside developing a better product experience, global expansion has been a key focus area over the past year for us. The latest round of funding has given us the muscle we needed to meet our aggressive expansion goals. Both Brazil and New Zealand have been very exciting markets so far, where users and restaurant owners alike have taken to Zomato really well. We plan to further our expansion in Brazil over the next six months, and also have 22 new countries in the pipeline for the next two years, across Europe, Asia and the Americas.”

Apart from the 12 international cities, Zomato is now present in a total of 40 cities across 11 countries, on the web, and on mobile for iOS, Android, Windows Phone and Blackberry platforms.
