How Deonde built HungryJi — the food delivery app that connected 200+ restaurants and home chefs with 50,000+ hungry users across Itanagar, Arunachal Pradesh — in just 7 days.
HungryJi is a hyperlocal food delivery app built specifically for Itanagar, Arunachal Pradesh — a market underserved by national delivery platforms. HungryJi connects local restaurants, home chefs, and hungry customers in a community-first approach to food delivery.
HungryJi set out to build a food delivery app for Itanagar — a market deeply underserved by third-party aggregator platforms like national food apps. They needed to onboard local restaurants and home chefs quickly while giving customers a seamless ordering experience. Building from scratch would have taken months and significant investment.
Deonde's white-label food ordering software was customised for the Itanagar market — with UPI, net banking, and cash-on-delivery payment options, and a dedicated home chef module that allowed individual cooks to register, list home-cooked meals, and receive orders directly through the app. The entire software was deployed in 7 days.
HungryJi achieved 50,000+ app downloads, onboarded 200+ restaurants and home chefs, and became the go-to food delivery app for Itanagar residents. The home chef module created new income opportunities for local cooks who had never had a digital ordering channel. HungryJi now owns its entire customer base — no commission paid to national marketplaces.
HungryJi uses Deonde's centralised admin panel to manage all restaurants, home chefs, delivery drivers, and order analytics from a single screen — no switching between systems, no data gaps.
A complete white-label food delivery software — built for Itanagar's community, supporting both restaurants and home chefs.
Fully branded iOS and Android app listed under the HungryJi name on App Store and Google Play — customers download HungryJi's app, not a national marketplace.
A dedicated portal for individual home chefs to register, list home-cooked meals, set availability, and receive orders directly through the app — creating new income for local cooks.
UPI, net banking, and cash-on-delivery options accommodating Itanagar's varied customer payment preferences — fully integrated from day one.
Granular delivery zone configuration optimised for Itanagar's unique geography and local neighbourhood structure — every restaurant serves its exact catchment area.
Streamlined vendor onboarding portal — restaurants and home chefs can register, upload menus, and go live quickly without any technical knowledge.
Dedicated driver app with order assignments, GPS navigation, delivery confirmation, and earnings tracking — branded under HungryJi for a unified fleet experience.
HungryJi isn't just a food delivery app — it's a community platform. By opening the software to home chefs, HungryJi created new income opportunities while expanding the variety of food available to customers in Itanagar.
"Starting our own delivery app felt overwhelming before Deonde. But they made it incredibly simple. We launched in less than a week, and our sales have grown significantly since then."
HungryJi no longer relies on national platforms to reach Itanagar's food lovers. Every order placed through the HungryJi app builds HungryJi's brand — customers download HungryJi, not a food aggregator.
