Condom sales are huge..!? but why buying with onions..?
Just as online food delivery services have helped take indian digital commerce to the fore, quick commerce services that deliver essential items quickly to people's homes have also helped in a big way. While swiggy Instamart is the leading indian quick commerce platform, swiggy has released an annual report collecting data on purchases made by people on the site in 2023. Just like people buy rice, dal, Tomato, and onion, condoms are now being bought more and more from Swiggy.
In its annual report, swiggy Instamart, which delivers across 28 cities, has seen the highest sales of condoms in september 2023, while Valentine's Day is generally expected to sell the most condoms. Especially since 5893 people bought condoms on the 12th of the year on the swiggy site, swiggy has declared this day as National Condom Day. It was on this day that swiggy condoms were pocket-packed and hidden from the delivery staff.
The important thing about this is that onion is added to most of the orders for condoms. In addition to onion, swiggy observed that bananas and chips are also being bought, said in its report. The indian quick commerce industry is dominated by swiggy Instamart, Zepto, and zomato Blinkit. While people buy many things on such sites, buying condoms is not only a growing trend on the site but also a hot topic of discussion.
