Blinkit’s Post

Blinkit reposted this

Today we've opened a temporary Blinkit store in Maha Kumbh Mela, Prayagraj to serve pilgrims and tourists. This one is a 100 sq ft store which will be delivering in Arail Tent City, Dome City, ITDC Luxury Camp, Devrakh, and other key areas of the Maha Kumbh Mela. Our teams are ready to deliver specially curated assortment like pooja needs, milk, curd, fruits & vegetables (for self consumption as well as for daan), chargers, power banks, towels, blankets, bedsheets and more. We’ve also got Triveni Sangam Jal bottles in stock 🙏

Truly commendable initiative by Blinkit to bring convenience and essential supplies to the heart of the Maha Kumbh Mela! This innovative approach of setting up a temporary store ensures that millions of pilgrims and tourists have access to curated daily essentials like pooja items, fresh produce, and even technological necessities like chargers and power banks. It's impressive to see how companies like Blinkit are leveraging their expertise to serve communities in unique ways, while also preserving traditions with offerings like Triveni Sangam Jal bottles. Kudos to the team for making such thoughtful efforts and setting a benchmark in service delivery.

"Wonderful initiative, Albinder Dhindsa. It’s amazing to see Blinkit serving the needs of pilgrims at the Maha Kumbh Mela. Wondering if you could also make the holy Triveni Sangam Jal available to those who can’t visit the Mela in person. Many saints have emphasized that bringing this sacred water home can allow people to experience its spiritual benefits. It would be a great way to connect those who are unable to attend with the essence of this divine event.

Quick commerce delivery is most efficient in specific areas, so why not promote e-cycles? These battery-powered cycles do not require helmets, number plates, or driving licenses, and generally there are no fines or penalties associated with their use on the road. Riders can also use both the battery power and pedal assist to increase speed and efficiency. For specific areas wise, e-cycles could be considered as an alternative to traditional e-scooter, normal bikes, etc vehicles, which require number plates, driving licenses, and helmets, most importantly the vehicle cost and maintenance.

Such a thoughtful initiative from Blinkit. A temporary store at the Maha Kumbh Mela shows that it understands what pilgrims and tourists need. This not only makes things more convenient but also means that important stuff is available at hand in the middle of all that bustle. That's quite impressive, starting from daily commodities to culturally important items like bottles of Triveni Sangam Jal. Well done to the team for their hard work and strategy. This is a good example of how business can change in order to be more beneficial to communities.

I have been a loyal customer for many years and have always appreciated Blinkit for its timely delivery and accurate fulfillment of orders. However, today’s experience has been deeply disappointing. Along with the desired product, I added other items to the cart to save on handling and delivery charges. Unfortunately, what I received was a used lip balm. When I reported the issue to your customer care team, Shruthi was assigned to handle my concern. I explained the situation, providing all relevant details and emphasizing my disappointment. However, her response was far from supportive. She insisted on only one resolution—picking up the item and refunding the amount. I suggested alternative solutions, including picking up the entire order or refunding the additional charges incurred (₹22). Despite this, she refused to consider any other option, remaining inflexible in her approach. Moreover, Shruthi’s tone and attitude during the call were triggering and unprofessional. To my surprise, she eventually disconnected the call without resolving the issue. This lack of accountability and poor handling of customer concerns is unacceptable. I have retained proof of the conversation, as well as evidence of the delivered product.

Impressive initiative, Albinder! It's great to see Blinkit supporting the Maha Kumbh Mela and ensuring that pilgrims have access to essential items. Your team's effort in curating this assortment highlights the commitment to the community. Wishing you all the best for this endeavor!

What an incredible marketing approach you have Sir..... सोच से परे।।। 🫡👏👏👍👍👍
