"DMart is a $30 billion company and they are only 4.5 times our size in sales. If we continue to execute well, we will continue to grow 2-3 times every year. And potentially surpass them in next 18-24 months which is an exceptionally well executed consumer company," he said at JIIF Foundation Day event in Delhi.
According to Palicha, India's grocery market is worth 650 billion in FY23 and will grow to 8850 billion by the end of FY29, a growth of 9%. Zepto will focus on the top 40 cities in the country targeting 50 to 75 million households.
"Grocery is bigger than all the categories that Amazon and Flipkart service. We are building the mother of all categories... We have had a crazy journey in the past 3 years. We have gone from zero to ₹10,000 crore in less than 3 years. It is the fastest company in Internet India to do that. Flipkart did it in 4 years. We did it in 2.5 years," Palicha aims to grow from ₹10,000 crore to ₹2.5 lakh crore in the next few years.
