Pluckk has built a strong connect with urban, busy professionals who want to eat better, without compromising on lifestyle or convenience. As this segment grows, along with the rapid expansion of quick commerce and modern retail, Pluckk has the perfect tailwinds to scale across the country. His arrival marks a significant milestone as we accelerate our vision to redefine fresh food consumption in India.”
