With
India exhibiting markers of enormous growth in the e-retail segment, the demand
for last-mile delivery services is bound to skyrocket. However, a few use cases
such as grocery deliveries typically require an executive to not only deliver
the product but also cross-check said products and deal with customers
first-hand. This requires trained professionals with good communication skills
rather than unskilled delivery personnel. Additionally, grocery deliveries
require eco-friendly vehicles that can transport heavy packages without lengthy
turnaround times. This is where Zpp Electric has made a massive difference.
Zypp
has developed a fleet of e-scooters that can carry weight of up to 200 kgs. The
company even has a team of highly-skilled delivery personnel who are capable of
effectively communicating with customers. Zypp has also set up over 50 battery
swapping stations to ensure that turnaround times are no more than a few
minutes. Furthermore, between April to December, 2020 the company’s EVs have
removed 2115020 Kgs of carbon pollution from the air

Gupta, Co-Founder and CEO - Zypp Electric, said, “Grocery delivery is new and
an interesting segment with specific demand of a robust fleet, time-bound
delivery and heavy loads. At Zypp, we are constantly connecting with
like-minded entities to further the idea of large-scale EV deployment for fleet
operations throughout the country. We have created special solutions catered to
the grocery segment. Our partnership with BigBasket, Grofers, and Spencers is a
huge step towards our goal. We endeavor to expand our services to other cities
as well and partner with organizations, businesses, kirana stores from all
regions to take the idea of a carbon-free India forward.”
Established
in 2017, Zypp Electric currently has a fleet of over 1500 EVs and is
operational in major cities including Delhi, Gurgaon, Noida, Faridabad,
Ghaziabad, and Jaipur.
