Minutes, the quick commerce division of Flipkart, has expanded to 1,000 fulfilment centres across 130 cities in less than two years, underscoring the growing competition in India's instant delivery market, where Amazon is expanding aggressively while Blinkit, Zepto and Instamart continue to invest in stores, product assortment and customer acquisition.
“We are roughly five times the size we were during the same period last year,” Kunal Gupta, senior vice president (SVP) and head of Flipkart Minutes, told ET. “It will be an aggressive expansion from here on. In the next few months, we are looking for 1,500 stores in 180-plus cities.”
