Flipkart has established a network of 1,000 micro-fulfillment centers across India less than two years after launching its Minutes quick-commerce service, with plans to expand to 1,500 centers by the end of 2026. These small warehouses enable deliveries within minutes and position Flipkart as a major player in India's rapidly growing quick-commerce market, competing with Amazon, Blinkit, Zepto, and Swiggy Instamart.

This rapid expansion highlights India's role as a key testing ground for next-generation e-commerce models focused on fast delivery and broader product offerings.
