Industry - SME
Harshit is a visionary entrepreneur who prioritizes people and meaningful connections. After earning his B.Sc. in Psychology (Honours) from Christ University, Bangalore, he co-founded Aforro with his brother Rachit to revolutionize quick grocery delivery in underserved Indian cities.
Bootstrapped from day one, Aforro fulfilled 7,000+ orders and served over 1,000 customers in 1.5 years. Recognizing the challenge faced by traditional grocery retailers, he pivoted Aforro’s model to collaborate with local stores rather than compete with them, safeguarding their livelihoods. Coming from a Kirana family, he understood their struggles and aimed to empower small businesses.
With firsthand experience in quick commerce, he is on a mission to transform India’s retail landscape and build a more sustainable future for small businesses and communities.
