About Routo

India's Local Marketplace — Shop, Sell & Thrive Locally

Big-tech delivery apps take up to 30% from local vendors in commissions. Routo is here to fix that. We give every local bakery, grocer, pharmacy and small shop their own digital storefront — fast delivery, real customers, fair prices. No corporate tax on your hustle.

Our Genesis

Empowering Local Businesses, One Neighbourhood at a Time

Routo was born out of a simple observation: local bakeries, grocers, pharmacies and small shops have amazing products but no affordable platform to reach customers. Big-tech delivery apps charge steep commissions that squeeze their margins.

Anish Pambhar asked: Why should a local shopkeeper pay 30% to a corporate platform just to reach the customer around the corner? We built Routo to give every local vendor their own digital storefront — low commission, fast delivery, real community connection.

"We aren't just creating another app; we're giving every local shop its own digital storefront. Routo keeps neighbourhood commerce alive, affordable and green — without the big-platform tax."
