2 lakh+ Kirana stores shut due to Zepto, Blinkit !!!

Recently read the article which says that approx 2 lakh+ kirana stores have been shut down in last few years after the arrival of quick commerce platforms like Zepto, Blinkit and Instamart. Even Flipkart has launched their own quick commerce platform now. Do you think its a good thing for our country in the long run? Or are these apps just making people lazy?

Zepto and Blinkit are not the alone to blame, see around yourself how Kirana (FMCG) industry is changing? From Kirana stores to Independent Self Service stores, to startups delivering goods to homes in 30min max. Same will happen to Medical Shops in near Future.

I resigned from my current company a couple of days ago. I have a 90 day notice period.
