ZFW Hospitality, a hyperlocal expansion platform for F & B & D2C brands, is entering Mumbai with over 50 dark kitchens & fulfilment centres for brands to expand in the western region. ZFW, which already partners with leading brands, has established a strong presence in Delhi-NCR with over 35 plus fulfilment centres. This expansion will help the platform scale up to the 100-store mark by August, before its Bangalore launch.

Commenting on the development, Madhav Kasturia, Founder of ZFW, said, “Mumbai is a very strategic move for us, as it’s the third-largest market in India for Food Delivery & Hyperlocal E-commerce after Delhi & Bangalore. Most brands on their expansion trajectory prefer to cover the major metros as their first milestones before scaling to Tier-2s & Tier-3s as these are easy-to-access markets. We’ve been very selective in choosing the brands we support & currently have several on the waitlist for the Q3 cohort.”

As part of its first cohort in Mumbai, ZFW will support the growth of 15 plus brands such as Keventers, Vadilal among others. As brands scale D2C capabilities & enter newer markets, supply chain and fulfilment costs often skyrocket. This is where ZFW steps in & assists with the rapid expansion through its dark kitchens & fulfilment centres- without operational hassles & upfront costs. A brand can launch a new location in 5 days & service orders in less than 25 minutes.
