Delhivery, Xpressbees venture into quick-commerce to meet soaring demand

Third-party logistics companies like Delhivery and Xpressbees, previously focused on serving e-commerce, are now diving into the quick-commerce sector amid an uptick in demand on Swiggy Instamart, Blinkit, Zepto, and others, according to a report in the Economic Times.

Delhivery, headquartered in Gurgaon and the largest third-party logistics firm, has begun overseeing larger warehouses for Swiggy Instamart that supply small dark stores and fulfillment centres in urban areas.
