Zepto联合创始人Aadit Palicha在Startup School India分享公司发展历程:从新冠期间在孟买通过WhatsApp群组配送杂货起家,现已成长为拥有超过20万员工、日处理数百万订单的印度最大即时电商平台之一。公司基于10分钟配送模式,自建暗店网络,并利用AI和机器人提升供应链效率,同时拓展广告业务。
Aadit Palicha (@aadit_palicha) is the co-founder and CEO of @ZeptoNow, one of India's largest quick-commerce grocery platforms.
Five years ago, Zepto was a WhatsApp group delivering groceries to neighbors in Mumbai during COVID. They've now grown into a company employing over 200,000 people, processing millions of deliveries per day. All built around a 10-minute delivery model powered by a network of dark stores.
At Startup School India, Aadit sat down with YC's @snowmaker to talk about the scrappy origins of Zepto, the pivot from a doorstep delivery model to owning their own dark store infrastructure and how the company is now using AI and robotics to drive supply chain efficiency and grow a fast-scaling advertising business.
