India’s 14 million kiranas, chemists, and cafés still handle nearly 90 percent of daily essentials, yet most remain invisible online; meanwhile, city residents juggle multiple apps or endure traffic for “quick-commerce” services that burn cash on dark stores, diesel vans, and 5-km delivery loops. The gap is clear: shoppers crave speed and certainty, neighbourhood retailers need digital reach and same-day cash flow, and cities demand cleaner streets—all at once. FromNear bridges this triple-pressure point. With a two-tap mobile dashboard, any corner shop can surface live inventory in minutes; our optimisation engine then merges items from the closest mix of stores and dispatches an electric courier whose loop never exceeds three kilometres, landing a consolidated basket at the customer’s door in roughly ten minutes. The result tackles each pain directly: merchants see 20–30 percent higher revenue and instant payouts without extra cap-ex; residents get big-app convenience while still buying from people who know their preferences; and the urban grid benefits from fewer vans, lower emissions, and quieter roads. Revenue comes from modest, tiered success fees and pinpoint neighbourhood ad slots, creating a data flywheel that only strengthens as more shops come online. FromNear isn’t another delivery app—it’s the urgently needed operating system that lets local commerce thrive in a digital, low-carbon future.
