Founding Story

Dunzo began in 2014 as a WhatsApp group in Bengaluru, where Kabeer Biswas and his early team took requests to pick up and drop off almost anything, from groceries and medicines to forgotten keys, and arranged the runs themselves. The steady flow of requests in a traffic-choked city showed there was demand for on-demand errands, and the founders turned the chat service into the Dunzo app.

Background

Kabeer Biswas studied engineering at the University of Mumbai and earned an MBA from NMIMS. He worked at Bharti Airtel and co-founded the local-deals startup Hoppr, which Hike Messenger acquired in 2014.

Role at Dunzo

Kabeer Biswas co-founded Dunzo in 2014 and was its CEO for about ten years. He started the service as a WhatsApp group in Bengaluru and raised money from Google in 2017 and Reliance Retail in 2022. After more than a year of funding trouble, he left Dunzo in January 2025 to lead operations at Flipkart Minutes, Flipkart's quick-commerce service, and left Flipkart in October 2025. Kabeer Biswas was born in 1984.
