Company Overview

Zepto is an Indian quick-commerce company that operates a platform for delivering groceries, electronics, apparel, and other essentials to consumers, promising delivery within 10 minutes. Founded in 2021 by Aadit Palicha and Kaivalya Vohra, the company utilizes a network of strategically located 'dark stores' or micro-warehouses to enable its rapid delivery service across major Indian cities. The company was originally founded as KiranaKart in 2020 before rebranding to Zepto and shifting to its current quick-commerce model in 2021. It has experienced significant growth, becoming a unicorn in August 2023 and achieving a valuation of over $5 billion by August 2024 after several substantial funding rounds. The company has also moved its headquarters from Mumbai to Bengaluru and is reportedly preparing for a future Initial Public Offering (IPO).
