Furthermore, there is an option of working part time or becoming part time partners. We are extremely happy with the initial results of the program, with close to 125,000 delivered orders in August 2018, through our GSPs. With the current success of the program, we are looking out for more service partners and expansion in all Grofers markets,” said , Co-founder and CEO, Grofers.
