Our Story
Zepto is a fast-growing startup that delivers groceries in 10 minutes through an optimised network of dark stores that we're building across the country! We’re scaling up throughout Mumbai quickly and, in the next six months, we’ll be launching in Bangalore, Delhi, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Kolkata.

We’re incredibly well-funded and just closed a massive Series B fundraise. Our investors include Y Combinator, Nexus Venture Partners, and many more! We’ve built out one of the best startup teams in India, with Senior Executives from Uber, Flipkart, Dream11, PhonePe, Goldman Sachs, Pepperfry, and institutions like Stanford, INSEAD, IITs, and IIMs.
