Zepto Reveals What People Ordered Most During Ganesh Chaturthi

Zepto is used by every other household in India to order last-minute things like groceries, bread and more. But during the festive season, instead of buying from markets, many people are just opening the Zepto app on their mobile and placing orders. This is what happened during the Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations.

The shopping trends during Ganeshotsav prove how Indian customers are open to making quick-commerce platforms their go-to for last-minute festive essentials, from fresh items to festive fashion. Since Ukadiche Modaks are an integral part of Ganesh Chaturthi, ingredients like pure cow ghee and rice flour were among the top ingredients being ordered.

Not just that, but the ingredients needed for modak fillings, like sesame seeds, coconut powder and dry coconut, also dominated many Zepto orders. Modak moulds also surged in demand as the ultimate tool to make that perfect modak shape.
