Kirana partners logged 30% rise in average monthly delivery incomes in 2020: Flipkart

Walmart-owned Flipkart on Friday said its Kirana partners across the country registered an increase of nearly 30 per cent in their average monthly delivery incomes in 2020. Flipkart group works with Kirana or general trade stores in various ways – through its delivery programme, authorised buy zones, and Flipkart Wholesale.

The Kirana stores form part of an extended delivery mechanism for Flipkart to help deliver packages at customers’ doorstep, especially in tier-II and III cities, while providing kiranas with an additional source of revenue. The initiative was launched in 2019 and over 50,000 Kirana stores across the country are currently part of the delivery programme.
