Curds to condoms: This company delivers all
TNN
Kabeer Biswas, founder of Dunzo Startup

HIGHLIGHTS
  • In 2018, Dunzo executed 75,590 deliveries within a 100-metre radius, including a delivery requested by a Gurgaon user to the 'third floor'
  • The longest distance travelled by Dunzo — to make a cake delivery — was 42km
If you are one of those baby boomers who always considered the urban Indian millennial lazy, here’s some hard (and rib-tickling) evidence backing your belief. A year-end trends report by Dunzo posted on its blog shows how, in 2018, urban Indians employed their favourite jugaad to manage day-to-day chores by leveraging the 24*7 on-demand delivery app.
In 2018, Dunzo executed 75,590 deliveries within a 100-metre radius, including a delivery requested by a Gurgaon user to the “third floor”.
The longest distance travelled by Dunzo — to make a cake delivery — was 42km.
From 13,517 contraceptive deliveries — including 308 orders of condoms twice in the same night — to over 6,000 deliveries of curd, to 14 pizza deliveries made to gyms, no task was too bizzare for Dunzo’s users to request.
Dunzo made 33,478 latenight deliveries in the year, and cigarettes and colas emerged as the top two items ordered by night-owl users of Dunzo. “Pune wrapped the year with aloo rolls, Gurgaon heated things up with tandoori chicken, while Chennai kept it basic with meals,” reads the note by Dunzo, listing some of the country’s favourite dishes this year. Biryani was Bengaluru’s favourite with 10,774 biryanis delivered in the city.
As many as 352 key bunches were forgotten by absent-minded hurried users on Mondays, and Dunzo helped single people drown their sorrows on Valentine’s Day with delivery of 89 ice cream tubs.
Not just that, thanks to Dunzo, users across the country saved 23,92,816 hours of their time this year, the report said, with shortest time on a single delivery clocking in at 7 minutes on a salad order for a Bengaluru user. Given the outpouring of love for Dunzo’s findings on Twitter, looks like the Indian user is not just lazy but also, as Dunzo puts, it “unapologetically” so.
