India’s quick commerce race just got hotter!
Zepto has achieved a new milestone — logging over 20 lakh daily orders, marking the highest order volume in the company’s history.
According to co-founder and CEO Aadit Palicha, Zepto’s order numbers soared in the days leading up to Diwali.
-
On October 18, the platform clocked 2.1 million orders
-
On October 19, it touched an all-time high of 2.37 million orders
-
On October 20, it continued strong at 2.13 million orders
This marks a massive 40% lead over its top rival, proving that Zepto’s 10-minute delivery model and hyperlocal efficiency are striking the right chord with Indian consumers.
Founded in 2021 by Aadit Palicha and Kaivalya Vohra, Zepto has rapidly evolved from a Mumbai-based experiment into one of India’s fastest-growing quick commerce giants. Its aggressive expansion strategy, focus on dark store optimization, and consistent user experience have positioned it as a serious challenger in India’s $50-billion grocery market.
As festive demand continues to rise, Zepto’s record-breaking numbers show one thing clearly — India loves instant gratification, and Zepto is delivering it—literally.
