Thrive Shuts Down โ€“ But It Meant Something More Founded in 2020 by Krishi Fagwani, Dhruv Dewan, and Karan Chechani, Thrive aimed to reshape food delivery โ€” giving restaurants more control and customers like me a better experience. Backed by Whiteboard Capital and Jubilant Foodworks, it wasnโ€™t just another app. Personally, I found Thriveโ€™s service smoother and more affordable than Swiggy or Zomato โ€” no crazy markups, just honest pricing and reliable delivery. Sadly, in 2024, Thrive shut down, unable to keep up with the industryโ€™s aggressive discount wars and deep-pocketed giants. But it stood for something rare: fairness, transparency, and local empowerment. Thank you, Thrive. You made food delivery feel human again.

As a cloud kitchen owner, Iโ€™m raising awareness about the challenges we face on delivery platforms like Zomato. They charge a 30% commission per order, and with an additional 10% government tax, weโ€™re left with just 60% of the order value. From this,
