Udaan is an Indian business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce platform founded by three former Flipkart executives, Amod Malviya, Sujeet Kumar, and Vaibhav Gupta. The trio left Flipkart in 2016 to start Udaan with a vision to simplify the way small and medium-sized businesses in India source products.
Amod Malviya, the former Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Flipkart, is credited as one of the main brains behind Udaan's technology infrastructure. Sujeet Kumar, another co-founder, served as the Head of Categories at Flipkart and brought in-depth experience in e-commerce operations to the table. Vaibhav Gupta, the third co-founder, was the former Senior Vice President (SVP) of Business Finance and Analytics at Flipkart, bringing financial expertise to Udaan.
The founders identified a significant gap in the B2B e-commerce space in India and aimed to address the challenges faced by small retailers, wholesalers, and manufacturers by providing them with a platform for easy procurement of goods. Udaan connects manufacturers, wholesalers, traders, and retailers on its platform, offering a wide range of products across categories such as electronics, apparel, appliances, and more.
Since its inception, Udaan has grown rapidly and attracted significant attention from investors, securing funding from prominent venture capital firms. The company's innovative approach to B2B e-commerce and its focus on empowering small businesses have positioned it as one of the leading players in India's e-commerce landscape. . . . .
Mama & Peaches was born in 2017 as a subscription box company for expecting and new mothers. The luxury boxes became very popular, but the model was not scalable and the company couldn’t go beyond 1,000 subscribers a month.
The founders, husband-wife duo Varun and Tanya Ghai, were looking for options to survive and thrive. The duo knew from personal experience that shopping as a new parent was “not easy”.
“Having put in countless hours to procure the best products for my baby, I identified a gap in the market— parents were dependent on international brands and family living abroad or buying from unorganised channels. We set out on a mission to create, procure and gather the best product mix for them and have not looked back,” says Tanya, Co-founder of Mama & Peaches.
Mumbai-based startup Adventum Student Living (ASL) began its journey in 2019 as a cross-border student accommodation platform for students moving abroad for education.
Founded by Amit Singh and Sayantan Biswas, ASL has since expanded its portfolio. From �UniAcco�, which provides accommodation services, the startup has also added financing solution UniCreds, and counselling service UniScholarz to its platform in 2021.
“The journey we are on is that we are building a student mobility platform for higher education. Any student who is on a journey to go abroad has these three buckets of challenges--starting with counselling, going to financing, and then when where will they live. We are building a platform where once the students are in our ecosystem, they can avail one or all three,” says Co-founder Amit.
Currently, the company has access to more than 10 banking partners to secure financing as well as over 10,000 properties across 10 countries such as UK, US, Canada, Australia, Ireland, and Germany.
ASL says that it has been a profitable venture from the first year of operation while growing at 400% year-on-year (YoY).
