Shiprocket-backed AI driven commerce platform fastrr announces its official entry into food commerce with its collaboration with Vegorama Group, a culinary group.
The foremost aim of fastrr is to help restaurants attract customers to their own digital channel, convert orders and encourage repeat purchases. Through this partnership, fastrr will help operate Vegorama’s both Punjabi Angithi, and Bikkgane Biryani verticals.
Through fastrr Identity and fastrr Signals, the brands can now identify high-intent and returning customers, while flagging potential RTO and COD risks before an order is placed. Fastrr Ads is supposed to enable performance campaigns optimised for delivered orders, while WhatsApp tools will help recover abandoned orders and send personalised offers and reorder reminders. Shiprocket Quick’s multi-partner rider network aims to support hyperlocal delivery from individual outlets, with live tracking and a target delivery time through direct channels. It also includes influencer-led campaigns for Vegorama Group, packaging and design support for both brands, and plans to explore direct-to-consumer food products through their own websites and quick-commerce platforms.
Speaking on the collaboration, Gaurav Mangla, CEO, Ads and Checkout, Shiprocket said, “We believe brands should have the ability to build that relationship directly, rather than have it mediated entirely by third-party platforms. This is the opportunity we see in food commerce, and one we are working with our partners to unlock. Fastrr by Shiprocket brings together the capabilities needed to support this journey, while helping restaurant businesses strengthen their digital presence and explore new avenues for growth.”
Deepak Chadha, Founder, Punjabi Angithi Vegorama Group, said, “As a delivery-focused restaurant business, we are constantly looking at ways to evolve how we serve our customers and expand our presence beyond our physical outlets. Our association with Fastrr by Shiprocket will support our digital growth through new marketing initiatives and a stronger online ordering experience. We also see an opportunity to explore new food products and formats that can help us reach customers in more ways, building on the foundation of our existing restaurant business.”
Praveen Valmiki, Founder, Bikkgane Biryani said, “In a category as competitive as biryani, the experience around the food is an important part of how a brand stands out. From discovering the menu to placing an order and receiving it at the doorstep, every touchpoint shapes how customers experience the brand. Our association with Fastrr by Shiprocket allows us to strengthen our digital ordering experience and create a more consistent journey for customers choosing Bikkgane Biryani.”
