ZILO

ZILO is a Mumbai-based fashion quick-commerce startup founded in 2025 by Padmakumar Pal and Bhavik Jhaveri. Pal, the CEO, is a former Vice President at Flipkart and Myntra, bringing extensive e-commerce experience to the venture. Jhaveri, the CIO, is a serial entrepreneur focused on solving consumer pain points through technology.

The company operates a B2C online marketplace that delivers apparel from over 250 brands, including Levi's, Puma, and United Colors of Benetton, in under 60 minutes. ZILO targets time-strapped urban consumers in India who seek immediate access to on-trend fashion. The business model utilizes a hybrid supply chain, combining strategically located dark stores with direct partnerships with brand outlets to ensure hyper-local fulfillment and access to in-season inventory. Revenue is generated through the sale of fashion and lifestyle products on its platform.

ZILO's key service differentiators include its rapid delivery and a "Scheduled Home Trials" feature. This allows customers to order multiple items, try them at home while a delivery representative waits for up to 30 minutes, and make instant returns of unwanted products, blending online convenience with an offline fitting room experience. In June 2025, the company secured $4.5 million in a seed funding round co-led by Info Edge Ventures and Chiratae Ventures. This capital is intended to strengthen its supply chain, expand brand partnerships, and scale operations beyond Mumbai to other major Indian cities.
