MUMBAI: Swiggy just ordered itself a fresh hot serving of growth—with extra toppings of expertise. The food delivery giant is turning up the heat in its growth kitchen by appointing seasoned omnichannel wizard Anuj Gupta as vice president of revenue and growth for its food marketplace. Clearly, Swiggy knows the secret sauce to stay ahead: hiring a seasoned chef of consumer-tech strategy.

Bringing more than 14 years of consumer-tech and retail mastery to Swiggy’s table, Gupta is tasked with spearheading strategic initiatives that’ll spice up user growth, revenue expansion, and brand power.

Previously, Gupta co-founded Thimblerr, transforming it into a powerhouse in fashion supply-chain solutions. Before stitching success at Thimblerr, he held key positions at Zivame, notably as chief revenue officer, dramatically shifting it from a marketplace to India’s biggest women's intimatewear brand, driving revenue up by a staggering 12 times in just four years. Now that's some impressive brand makeover!

Notably at Zivame, Gupta also boosted six month customer retention by 1400 basis points and increased purchase frequency by 25 per cent. These numbers aren't just impressive—they’re sizzling hot!

At Swiggy, Gupta’s culinary magic will focus on optimising revenue streams, enhancing customer experience, and maximising platform growth. Whether it’s perfecting the recipe for customer retention or cooking up tasty innovations in user engagement, he’s got a proven appetite for results.

Gupta’s earlier stints include impactful roles at Myntra, JPMorgan Chase, and co-founding ventures like Flont and Citizens for Accountable Governance. Clearly, he loves wearing multiple hats—and looks good in all of them!

With Gupta behind the wheel, Swiggy aims to deliver an enhanced dining experience for millions across India, one delicious strategy at a time.
