November 2, 2021: The EV logistics tech delivery startup Zypp Electric announced that it has built India’s first EV D2C business.
“Zypp Electric is on a quest to achieve 100 percent electrification in last-mile logistics and to assist businesses from all sectors in becoming carbon emission-free. It caters to a wide range of enterprises, including huge e-commerce companies, e-grocery, Kirana stores, and restaurants. Zypp Electric handles their end-to-end last-mile deliveries – from stores to customers’ homes – with a variety of differentiated tech-enabled custom solutions, including the use of e-vehicles, service timing fixes, IoT-enabled battery swapping infrastructure, ensuring good riders, and providing an exclusive experience to their end customers,” reads the release.
Zypp Electric now has a fleet of 2000+ electric scooters and does 500k deliveries each month. In India, last-mile delivery is a major business. According to KPMG, by 2025, India will have 6.1 million delivery executives doing last-mile deliveries.
Akash Gupta, Co-Founder & CEO of Zypp Electric, said, “We aim to demonstrate the robust and savage force of the Zypp Cargo, A two-wheeler truck launched in the last EV Expo at Pragati Maidan. Zypp Electric has received 5000 open orders for this model. Zypp believes that everyone should be able to participate in this ecosystem and benefit from the multibillion-dollar EV business. With its MISSION ZERO EMISSION mission, Zypp Electric wants to expand its fleet size and continue its path to become the largest D2C brand in the market with our successful Zypp Buy & Earn program where all our 2000 bikes are invested by HNIs and they get healthy return via Zypp Platform.”
Zypp Electric debuted India’s first B2B heavy electric scooter, the ‘Zypp Cargo,’ in July 2021. This heavy-duty scooter is designed for last-mile logistics and can carry up to 250 kg. It has a 40 Ah battery and can go 120 kilometres in one charge. It can accommodate multiple battery systems and have swappable batteries. Its resilience makes it ideal for shipping crates, pet bottles, cylinders, high load shipments, groceries, huge food bags, and ecommerce bulk shipments, among other items, making it an easy option for e-commerce, grocery, and B2B delivery firms in India.
Zypp Electric offers a wide range of investment and lease opportunities. It offers a one-of-a-kind Buy, Lease, and Earn program under the Zypp Entrepreneurship Program, in which anybody can purchase electric scooters/loaders and lease them, receiving guaranteed monthly returns/rentals directly in their bank account.
With its MISSION ZERO EMISSION mission, Zypp intends to grow its fleet to 100,000 EVs in the next two years and continue its quest to become the leading D2C brand in the market and establish a tech EV fleet ecosystem for a sustainable future. Bigbasket, Spencer, Amazon, Flipkart, Licious, and Myntra are just a few of the e-commerce, grocery, e-retail, and food tech companies with which the firm has worked. Zypp now operates in nine cities: Delhi, Gurgaon, Ghaziabad, Noida, Faridabad, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Pune, and Hyderabad, where it recently debuted its services. It now has 300 clients and plans to reach 1,000+ partners by FY2022.
