Narendra Singh’s Testimonial: From Security Guard to Thriving Delivery Partner at Zypp Electric
“I used to work as a security guard, earning 15,000 rupees per month. It was a struggle to make ends meet and provide for my family. I heard about Zypp Electric and its delivery partner program, and I decided to apply. Since joining, my monthly earnings have increased to 45,000-50,000 rupees. I no longer worry about making ends meet or providing for my children’s education. Zypp’s commitment to sustainability and empowering its delivery partners has been life-changing. I’m proud to be part of their mission and encourage others to join Zypp Electric for a better life.”
Sunil Kumar’s Testimonial: From Village to City, Zypp Electric Changed My Life “I was a farmer earlier back in my village and I had big dreams to earn, I left my village in search of a better life, but finding a job was tough. I struggled to make ends meet, and my rent was piling up. Then I joined Zypp Electric as a delivery partner. Now, I earn 45,000 rupees per month. I dream of moving out of my small rented house and into a bigger one. It’s a tough journey being a delivery boy and Zypp Electric has given me a new lease on life, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to build a better future for myself.”
Akash Gupta, Co-Founder and CEO of Zypp Electric shared his thoughts on these achievements: “The big satisfaction we get in building Zypp is what we’re enabling for our over 25,000+ monthly active delivery pilots who earn via the Zypp platform. We are thrilled to see such significant growth in the earnings of our pilots. This reflects the increasing adoption of electric vehicles by delivery partners and underscores our commitment to providing sustainable and profitable earning opportunities. Our pilots are the backbone of our operations, and their success is a testament to their hard work and our shared vision for a greener, more prosperous future. We also aim to make delivery gig jobs more respectable and aspirational, considering the expanding market and delivery segment in India. If more youth & women in their 20s can see delivery jobs as viable earning opportunities, it could be a game changer, helping elevate their living standards with the right policies in place.”
Zypp Electric is also keen to partner with NGOs, and agencies to onboard women & specially abled delivery partners to empower them with the earning opportunity and increase 25,000 to 10X of current gig worker strength in next two years.
