As we step into 2026, it’s time to look back at a year that redefined “Retail Tech” for India. 2025 wasn’t just about growth; it was about presence, precision, and becoming a part of the daily rhythm for millions of users.
From office corridors to high-security military camps, Daalchini machines are now everywhere. Here is a look at the milestones that made 2025 extraordinary!
The Power of Scale
Our footprint expanded at a breathtaking pace last year. We proved that if there is a need, there is a Daalchini machine ready to meet it.
- Network Growth: We reached a milestone of 4,900+ total VMs, with a new machine going live every 7 hours.
- Transaction Volume: We processed over 35 Million+ orders, resulting in an overall GMV of ₹1.7 Billion+.
- New Frontiers: We unlocked high-traffic locations including Metro Stations, Military Camps, High-streets/Malls, Gyms, and Gas Stations.
- Elite Partnerships: We welcomed a 2025 cohort of over 1,000+ prestigious clients, including brands like The LaLiT, P&G, Uniqlo, PVR, and the Reserve Bank of India.
Innovation at the Core
Scale is only possible with smart technology. In 2025, AI helped us move from “hours to seconds.”
- AI-Care: Our AI-led support engine now auto-resolves 77% of tickets, slashing resolution time by 76%.
- AirSynch: We launched a unique IoT-driven remote management solution that reduced feature release time from 60 days to just 2 days.
- Onboarding 2.0: Automation reduced our lead-to-conversion time by more than 30%.
What India Loved in 2025
Our users didn’t just snack; they engaged with us at record levels.
- Loyalty: We saw 1.5 Million+ monthly users, including our “Most Loyal User” who placed 1,275 orders (averaging 3 snacks per day!).
- The Golden Hour: We served 3 Million “Hunger Pangs” during the peak hour of 5:00 PM-6:00 PM alone.
- Category Expansion: Beyond snacks, 2025 belonged to new categories like Beauty, Electronics, and Personal Hygiene. Incredibly, Face Wash became our most-selling product at the Mahakumbh Mela.
- Brand Diversity: We now host 700+ brands, with 40% being D2C favorites like SuperYou, Fast&Up, and 4700BC.
Looking Ahead to 2026
While we took over the snacking world, consuming a whopping 50,000kg of dry fruits and nuts along the way, this is only the foundation.
In 2025, we proved that “if it sells, our Daalchini machines can vend it”. As we move into 2026, we are ready to continue revolutionizing Retail Tech and making “Anything, Anytime, Anywhere” a reality for every Indian consumer.
Thank you to our partners, our team, and our users for making 2025 a landmark year!
