CEO Reveals...In a letter to shareholders, Blinkit chief executive officer (CEO) Albinder Dhindsa said that from the company's standpoint, they are "keeping things simple and making sure that they are investing in delivering on their promise to customers". Explaining Blinkit's dominant market share in the India's quick commerce space, Dhindsa revealed that it involves ''solving two large problems.""Doing that involves solving for two large problem statements in parallel - a) building a retail business, with a leading edge just-in-time supply chain, and b) an internet and logistics business (like food delivery)," he said.According to the CEO, both these problems are extremely hard on their own, and solving these two problems synchronously with each other makes quick commerce multiple times more complex than traditional retail, or food delivery."We feel that in our business, the customer is extremely value conscious, but not price conscious. And we try our hardest to deliver the best value to the customer – which is a function of speed, assortment, customer support, and price – in that order," said CEO Dhindsa.Adding to Blinkit's success, Eternal CEO Deepinder Goyal said, "Maybe the difference between us and other companies comes from the “dissatisfied” culture in the team. Our teams rarely celebrate wins, keep a low profile, and believe in the 1% done philosophy. We want to keep our heads down, and keep up the momentum in solving problems for our customers, without having or needing to look back to see how far we have come."Zomato Q1 Preview: Strong Growth Visibility, But Focus On Quick Commerce Margins.
