Swiggy to Inject $115 Million into Supply Chain Division as Quick-Commerce Boom Continues

New Delhi: Indian food and grocery delivery giant Swiggy announced on Friday that it will invest up to ₹10 billion ($115.47 million) in its supply chain subsidiary, as part of the continued expansion of its rapidly growing quick-commerce platform, Instamart.

Scootsy, Swiggy’s supply chain arm, specializes in warehouse management and order processing, streamlining deliveries for wholesalers and retailers. The latest investment, following a ₹16 billion infusion in December, will be made in multiple phases to support the company’s broader growth strategy.

Much like Zomato—recently rebranded as Eternal—has done with Blinkit, Swiggy has accelerated investments in Instamart, striving to fulfill orders for groceries, electronics, and other essentials in 10 minutes or less.

The quick-commerce sector is expanding at a faster pace than food delivery, though the latter remains the primary revenue driver for both Swiggy and Zomato. However, heavy investments in instant deliveries have exerted pressure on profit margins as the companies battle for market dominance.

Swiggy’s supply chain revenue surged 23% year-over-year, reaching ₹16.93 billion in the October-December quarter.
