Buoyed by ample funding and growing demand, India’s quick commerce sector is experiencing rapid expansion. Zepto, Blinkit, and Swiggy Instamart have become key players, but competitors such as Flipkart Minutes, JioMart, and BigBasket are aiming to challenge their dominance.
With quick commerce gaining traction in online shopping, players in the sector are anticipated to experience a significant boost in sales during the upcoming festive season. To capitalise on this surge in demand and secure their market position amidst growing competition, Zepto, Swiggy Instamart, and Blinkit are expanding into new cities ahead of the festivities.
