What is a dark store?

Dark stores are small storage units spread at multiple locations within the city hence closer to the customer. Dark stores are used for storages, order processing and effective last mile solutions.

How dark stores work?

Dark stores are spread across multiple locations within the city, you can store their products at multiple locations which helps them reduce cost and be operationally more efficient.

  • Store: You send over your inventory to our dark store location, then your inventory is equally distributed to multiple dark stores which helps you to be closer to your customer.
  • Pick and Pack: Once the order is received from the customer, staff at the location starts processing the order. The order is picked, packed and is ready to be dispatched. This process takes 15-20 mins.
  • Fast Delivery: After order is ready for dispatch, order is then handed over to the rider for last mile deliver. Orders can reach the customer within 2 hours.
  • Delighted Customer: Receiving orders within 2 hours improves customer experience and helps to boost up the sales.
