Flipkart Group chief corporate affairs officer Rajneesh Kumar stated: “The launch of our third grocery fulfilment centre in Karnataka has significantly improved Flipkart’s proximity to consumers in the state, ensuring easy access to fresh groceries.  

“It further bolsters our commitment to providing next-day deliveries of daily essentials to consumers at their doorstep. At Flipkart, we stay dedicated to making everyone a part of India’s digital journey while boosting the local economies.  

“By strengthening our strategic partnership with farmer producer organisations and strategic investments in the state, we will continue to facilitate market entry for thousands of local MSMEs, small businesses and farmers.” 

The opening of the Hubli centre comes one day after Flipkart opened a new fulfilment centre in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. 

The 77,000ft² facility is capable of processing 8,000 orders per day and will generate 1,000 direct and indirect jobs. 

In February 2024, Flipkart launched a new 1,13,000ft² grocery fulfilment centre in Malda, West Bengal.
