Zypp Electric announced the launch of its services in Bengaluru and Pune. The startup began operations with 100 EV bikers in each of the two cities. With this, Pune has become the first city in Western India where Zypp Electric will begin operations. With the addition of these two locations, Zypp Electric now has operations in nine cities across India- New Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad, Jaipur, Gurugram, Faridabad, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, and Pune.
It has teamed up with grocery, e-commerce, and food tech behemoths including Bigbasket, Biddano, Grofers, and Flipkart to electrify last-mile delivery in both cities. All deliveries in the two cities will be made by electric scooters with API integration. Furthermore, the corporation will initially deploy 20 battery swapping and charging stations to ensure that the vehicles run properly.
For their delivery, Zypp engaged a crew of trained riders, out of which, women riders account for 10 per cent of all trained riders. All of the riders comply with Covid-19 etiquette by donning masks, gloves, and face shields to ensure their safety. This will ensure that things are delivered safely without having to interact with customers.
