Uber has officially launched Uber Direct, marking its entry into the business-to-business logistics market, with the support of ONDC.

Uber Direct is initially supporting grocery deliveries for brands like Zepto and KPN Farm Fresh. The company plans to rapidly expand its food delivery capabilities within weeks, catering to major international chains such as KFC and Burger King, as well as local entities like Rebel Foods. Uber sees Bengaluru as a key hub for these ONDC integrations.
