Hi folks, 

I'm Aadit, Co-Founder & CEO at Zepto. We're one of India's fastest growing consumer internet companies and are today present across 10+ cities in the country. 

I'd love to chat with you folks about my journey in building Zepto, my thoughts on the quick commerce space, organization building, amongst other things.

Ask away!

I'm Aadit Palicha, Co-Founder & CEO at Zepto. Ask me anything!

Hey @Aadit  
I’m @salt  
  
Some questions from my side: 
1. As companies scale there are many diverging opinions on how things should run. How do you ensure that the best ideas drive the company even though they might be in direct conflict with your point of view?  
  
2. What kind of impact have you seen via use of Machine Learning to streamline operational efficiency wrt initial benchmarks? 
  
3. What is the key focus area that you are currently working on? 
  
4. How do you balance creating shareholder value versus customer value?

How long will Zepto go on with cash burning?

Anyone working in zepto, how’s the work env in company and are the founders bunch of spoiled rick kids or they have something in them?

Zepto seems damn interesting

Investor

While I'm proud of these two revolutionising the quick commerce space, I somehow have a bad feeling about this

Profits aren't coming, money is flowing
Don't know what the VCs are seeking?
Why bake a a pie that you can't eat later?

Too much money too soon, where have we seen that?

Consultant

They are failing to deliver the value but they are trying to show fake growth and raising money showing higher valuation. So the basic game is numbers you have the valuation but zero value to deliver and their Zepto pass is a bigger scam to fool customers. God bless minds of VCs and investors because they fall for such traps and spill money like crazy on such startups.

Zepto is a mirage too! Raising money just for the hype in quick commerce.

- Zepto, an Indian instant delivery startup, has secured $340 million in a Series G round, valuing the company at $5 billion.
- The funding round, co-led by General Catalyst and Mars Growth Capital, brings Zepto's total fresh funding this year to nearly $1 billion.
- Competing with BlinkIt and Swiggy’s Instamart, Zepto is on track to generate over $1.5 billion in annualized sales.
- Quick-commerce services like Zepto are gaining traction in urban India, leveraging strategically located 'dark stores' to fulfill orders within minutes.
- Analysts note that quick-commerce firms in India are outperforming traditional e-commerce giants like Amazon, which has been slow to adapt to changing consumer habits.

Zepto Raises $340M at $5B Valuation Amidst India's Quick-Commerce Boom

Did anyone observe that surge/demand charges were being charged on blinkit??
I didn't see with Zepto.

This happened while I was ordering for the sake of secret santa.

Big W for Zepto

Quick commerce and also food delivery, Zepto is pulling out one surprise card after another.

Prices are decent
Quality is good
Taste is what they described 
Secure double packaging

Tbh, these founders (who don't age) will have us surprised all through. 
Though this doesn't look like profit generating to me. 

P.S. I will now have these purple capped bottles stacked up 🙈

Anyone tried Zepto Cafe?

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Every dtc founder is trying to enlist their products on the q-commerce platforms.

Quick commerce is changing the buying behaviour!

Can anyone from Zepto help me understand the Unit Economics of Zepto (some structure would help)? Is it working, are the dark-stores really operationally profitable?
