Flipkart hyperlocal service goes to 6 new cities, promises 90-min delivery
Flipkart said on Tuesday it has expanded its hyperlocal
service to six new cities, seeking customers for doorstep delivery of
daily essentials during the coronavirus pandemic.
Flipkart Quick
is now available in Delhi, Gurgaon, Ghaziabad, Noida, Hyderabad and Pune and
will go to other cities this year gradually, said the company.
“Hyperlocal capabilities are invaluable in enhancing the online
shopping experience for consumers and boosting supply chain operations for
e-commerce companies,” said Sandeep Karwa, vice-president, Flipkart. “It is
important to explore ecosystem partnerships to strengthen such capabilities and
accelerate faster, reliable deliveries to customers.”
He said Flipkart remains committed to creating solutions that will
not only deliver greater value to the customers but also boost local farmers
and suppliers apart from providing a fillip to entrepreneurship.
Flipkart Quick was launched in Bengaluru in 2020 to widen the
accessibility of products and enable quick delivery for consumers who order
products from Flipkart hubs in their location. The service offers an assortment
of more than 3,000 products in categories such as fresh fruits and vegetables,
dairy, meat, grocery, mobiles, electronics and baby care.
Flipkart Quick leverages the company’s investment in Ninjacart and
strategic partnerships with other local vendors to build an end-to-end
ecosystem that enables customers to get the best quality fruits and vegetables
at a great value. Shadowfax,
