Cash-flush quick-commerce unicorn Zepto loads up talent cart ahead of IPO

Flush with funds, quick-commerce unicorn Zepto is looking to strengthen its leadership ahead of its upcoming initial public offering (IPO) by hiring several senior-level employees across various categories, said Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer Aadit Palicha.

“Today, most of my day is spent conducting back-to-back candidate interviews, mostly for vice-presidents (V-Ps) that we are trying to hire in business verticals like home and personal care, or meat and seafood,” said Palicha, speaking at the seventh JIIF Foundation Day event in New Delhi on July 6.
