Quick commerce logistics start-up Zippee has launched Blaze, its new 60-minute delivery service for online marketplaces across India.

The inaugural cohort of marketplace partners includes Vaaree, Supertails, Haldiram, Mondelez India, and Clinikally, reflecting growing consumer demand for quick commerce and a broadening of faster fulfillment beyond grocery essentials, says a release.

The service is live in NCR, Bangalore, and Mumbai, with plans to expand to 5 more cities, including Chennai, and 120 marketplaces and brands in the coming quarters, the release said.

Founded in 2021, the Gurgaon-based start-up integrates with brands and e-commerce platforms, enabling direct deliveries to customers through their own channels. It uses a network of dark stores and last-mile fleets across 13 cities to power same-day, 2-hour, and now 60-minute deliveries for eligible SKUs.

Zippee has raised $8.5 million funding to date from a consortium of investors, including South Asia Technology Partners, FMCG giant Haldiram Snacks, and notable angel investors such as Kunal Shah, Peyush Bansal, Ashneer Grover, Paramdeep Singh, Tanmay Bhat, Arjun Vaidya, and Raj Shamani, the release said.
