E-Commerce vs. Q-Commerce vs. Kirana Stores: A Shopping Evolution in India

Growing up in an Indian village, everyone relied on the local Kirana store. Everyone had an &#x27;account&#x27; at the Kirana store. The farmers would zero out the account at the harvest time.<p>Now when I go back, there are eCommerce motorcycle delivery drivers everywhere though the number of Kirana stores still remains about the same. I have never seen a Quick commerce delivery driver though - I guess villages aren&#x27;t the target for Q-commerce companies.
