What we prepare
What we prepare for Zepto
A first-order range
The four to six lines you would want on a shelf first, chosen for repeat use, with pack sizes and the reason each is on the list.
A pack-details table
Net quantity, printed MRP, barcode, ingredients or composition and usage line, copied from the pack as sold.
Tile-ready photographs
A front-of-pack image we test at the size of a phone tile and a second image that shows the back panel clearly.
A product line for each pack
One plain sentence of what the product is and who it is for, written without claims the pack does not make.
Papers in one folder
Licences, registrations and test reports you hold, named and dated, with the licence number shown where it is printed on the pack.
You provide
- The pack as sold and your real supply capacity.
- Your licences and registrations.
- A decision on the one or two products to lead with.
Zepto decides
- Whether Zepto lists the brand, and the terms on which it does.
- Which of its stores and cities carry the product.
- All commercial terms.
Who can sell
Who can sell on Zepto
Approval is by Zepto. Zepto lists the documents it needs in its own sign-up form; we go through it with you when you apply.
Documents
Documents Zepto asks for
We print no document list and no count for Zepto. We go through its sign-up form with you when you apply, so the papers are ready.
How it works
Who does what
You
Pick the lead products
Choose items that people buy again and again. A repeat product makes a shorter and stronger case than a one-off.
Us
Build the range and pack sheets
One row per pack with printed details and a photograph.
You
Ask Zepto for its current brand route
Ask Zepto how a brand should apply, and tell us.
Zepto decides
Listing and terms
Zepto decides whether to list the brand and how. We do not guess its terms.
Us
Match the sheets to its form
When Zepto tells you what it needs, we map each field to your sheets and write down what is missing.
Fees
Fees on Zepto
We print no Zepto margin, minimum or fee figure; Zepto sets its own terms.
Why choose us
What stays the same on every job
Zepto decides, and we say so
We print no Zepto terms, and we do not borrow terms from other sites.
Repeat-use thinking
A short list chosen for repeat purchase is easier to talk about than a long catalogue.
Papers named and dated
A tidy folder is a small sign to a reviewer that the brand is run properly.

Send your product list and a pack photograph. We reply with a written plan and a fixed quote within one working day.
In depth
Getting ready for a Zepto conversation
Where a brand starts
Approval is by Zepto, and what it needs is shown in its own form or by its team.
We keep this page short because what Zepto asks of a brand is Zepto's to say.
Choosing what to lead with
A dark store holds a limited range for nearby homes, so the first conversation with any quick-commerce app tends to be about a handful of products, not a whole catalogue. Choose the ones people buy repeatedly: things that are used up and bought again. That is a judgement about your product, and we help you make it by looking at the pack, the price and the way it is used.
For each lead product we write one plain line of description and test the photograph at the size of a phone tile. If the pack name cannot be read at that size, we say so and suggest a retake. These small checks cost little and are done before anyone at Zepto sees the product.
Papers and what follows
Keep licences and test reports in one folder, named and dated. For food, FSSAI's public licensing FAQ says food businesses declare their 14-digit licence or registration number on invoices and bills, and that platforms listing food businesses must list only those with a valid licence or registration; we give the source on our quick-commerce management page. That is FSSAI's rule, not Zepto's.
If Zepto does take a brand on, the daily work is stock that matches orders, a catalogue that stays accurate and prices that agree with your other channels. See inventory management and catalogue management. We make no promise of a listing, a date, a margin or a sales number.
Questions
Common questions

Zepto sets its own terms, so we state none.
