What to watch
- Spoilage/wastage rate reduction attributable to AI forecasting
- CAC and subscription churn in newly entered cities
- Contribution margin per delivery route hitting breakeven
- Any bridge round or larger Series B raise within 9-12 months signaling burn pressure
- Quick-commerce players (Zepto/Blinkit/Milkbasket) moving into daily-dairy subscriptions
- Prioritize 1-2 adjacent metros with existing cold-chain overlap before broad expansion
- Deploy AI demand forecasting to cut spoilage and lock in subscription retention metrics
- Widen daily-essentials basket (bread, eggs, produce) to lift AOV and delivery-route economics
- Build a Series B narrative around per-city contribution margin, not just top-line growth
