Delhivery is a third-party logistics service provider, operating in over 1,200 cities in India.[3] It was founded in 2011 by Sahil Barua, Mohit Tandon, Bhavesh Manglani, Suraj Saharan, and Kapil Bharati.
Delhivery started in May 2011, initially conceptualised as a hyperlocal express delivery service provider for offline stores, delivering flowers and food locally in Gurgaon for the first few months.[4] The online retailing segment was at the time expanding rapidly in India, with global investors demonstrating significant interest. Founders Barua and Tandon, who were then working as consultants for Bain & Company, were intrigued by the size and potential of the industry, and decided to focus on this space.[5] In June 2011, Delhivery acquired its first e-commerce client, urbantouch.com, an online fashion and beauty retailer, and in August it switched to providing logistics services for e-commerce companies.[4]
