Maths Behind Dunzo's Co-Founder Kabeer Biswas's Switch To Flipkart Minutes As Lead Operations

Co-founder and CEO of hyper-delivery startup Dunzo is expected to take up the role of head of operations at Flipkart Minutes, the quick commerce division of Walmart-owned e-commerce website, as reported by Moneycontrol. This marks Biswas' return to the fast delivery sector after spending over a decade building and expanding Dunzo. The competitors including Instamart, Swiggy, Tata BigBasket, and Zomato-owned Blinkit are fiercely increasing the competitive landscape to stay ahead in the market and beat the competition.

As the reports suggested, Dunzo is struggling to cope with its operations with the increasingly competitive hyperlocal delivery industry, despite the funding raised for over $400 million from investors like Alphabet, Reliance Retail, and Google through multiple rounds. This leads Biswas to become the last co-founder to quit Dunzo, who once founded his company in 2014.

With the shift in his career trajectory, Biswas is returning to the rapidly evolving quick-commerce sector to leverage his considerable expertise. In his new role at Flipkart Minutes, Biswas is expected to captivate Flipkart’s broader strategy to establish its strong presence in the market space of rapid delivery. Flipkart is actively seeking to establish itself as its current competitors like Instamart, Blinkit, and others. Biswas, who once had experience bringing Dunzo in a row with formidable players, is expected to harness his expertise in establishing Flipkart Minutes with a competitive advantage over its rivals.

Plus, Biswas is most likely to work with Hemant Badri, Sr. VP (senior vice president) of Flipkart, accountable for the firm’s quick commerce department since 2022, who has been instrumental in driving its supply chain operations in the fast-paced rapid delivery market. the company has high hopes for Biswas that his addition to the leading management will boost the company’s capabilities in the market.

Flipkart’s move to boost its presence in the competitive landscape comes in the wake of the significant Google’s investment of $350 million to the former’s total of $12.1B fundraising. With the strategic investment, Flipkart’s valuation rose to $36B, showing the company’s growth potential in quick commerce and e-commerce sectors. Interestingly, Google has stakes of roughly 19% in Dunzo and roughly 1% in Flipkart, as per the reports. Hence, this movement is expected to be advantageous to both companies, while competing in the rapidly evolving landscape of e-commerce and on-demand delivery.

Biswas’s switch to Flipkart Minutes represents the growing popularity of quick-commerce in India where customers seek speed and convenience. With the market growing further, Flipkart’s smart move to implant a seasoned leader like Biswas shows its commitment to leading the space. Bringing along a wealth of experience from his own startup, his deep understanding of the changing landscape of this space is expected to mark him as a game changer in the Indian market and dominate the quick commerce space. His deep understanding and knowledge of the market are set to play a crucial role with the backing of giant investors like Google. Biswas is poised to climb the new beginning while accelerating the company’s growth trajectory and coming to the front of the e-commerce and rapid delivery sectors.
