“This is the event of the decade in India, even bigger than Diwali...Zepto is the perfect platform for core cricket viewing-day products like beverages and snacks which is why we're seeing a major boost in volume today," CEO and Co-Founder Aadit Palicha said.
The company also delivered as many as 2 lakh free Thums Up beverages as part of a partnership with the brand, applicable on orders worth more than Rs 300. "The partnership with Thums Up has been a big success in driving traffic today," Palicha added.
The platform said chips and similar savoury snacks, beverages, ice creams, and other processed foods reported a 50%-100% spike in orders, compared to a regular Sunday. Interestingly, puja flowers are also up 40% compared to a regular Sunday, even in cities where the festival of Chhath Puja is not celebrated as much.
Earlier, BQ Prime had reported that Swiggy's quick commerce arm Instamart was also expecting a record number of users during the final clash.
