KiranaPro

KiranaPro is a quick commerce startup based in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India, founded in 2024 by Deepak Ravindran. The company employs 5 individuals and has raised seed funding from venture capital firms including Turbostart, Unpopular Ventures, Blume Founders Fund, and Snow Leopard Ventures, as well as angel investors.

Business Model

KiranaPro partners with local "Kirana" stores (small mom-and-pop shops) to enable them to offer ultra-fast deliveries, competing with quick commerce companies.

It leverages partnerships within the Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) ecosystem to streamline operations.

Unlike traditional quick commerce companies that rely on dark stores, KiranaPro utilizes neighborhood Kirana stores to fulfill orders.

KiranaPro uses AI to create structured order leads without catalogs (e.g., "1 packet of rice, 2 lays chips").

It has developed an ultra-fast bidding engine that ships these leads to Kirana stores that bid on them.

Product and Services

KiranaPro is developing a consumer app focused on delivering a seamless user experience, currently being tested with 7,000 users in Bangalore.

The platform offers voice-based ordering and multiple Kirana options.

It aims to provide fast delivery without convenience fees.
