Mumbra: For years, popular food and grocery delivery services like Zomato, Swiggy, Natureâs Basket, Big Bazaar etc. did not deliver to Mumbra, a bustling suburb just north of Mumbai city limits. During the lockdown, as deliveries became the only way to get food and other essentials, Mumbraâs residents were completely left out and had to risk stepping out.
Now, they have an alternative â a local, homegrown food delivery service set up by boys from Bhiwandi, which is even further north of Mumbra. And it is bringing food and joy to the nine lakh residents of Mumbra.
