Military Tourism: A first in India Set to Debut

For the first time in India, tourists can get a ringside view of military life thanks to extreme tourism initiative titled ‘Veer Yatra’ organised by Maharashtra Ex-servicemen Corporation (MESCO) – a Government of Maharashtra undertaking.

It is a unique concept that encourages civilians to explore various facets of India’s defense forces and its evolution and aims to give citizens a glimpse into military way of life. The tours will be conducted by the brave men who once worked for the military.

The first-of-its-kind ‘military tourism’ initiative in India aims at strengthening the emotional bond that exists between the military establishment and the civilian population.


Commenting on the launch, Col (Retd.) Suhas S. Jatkar, MD, MESCO, said, “While Military Tourism is a well-established concept worldwide, it has not been explored in a structured way in India so far. Military, its intricacies, heroism, security, wars and its intrigues are such a big part of worldwide history that they generate considerable interest in military sites.

A military association is looked up to very proudly by every Indian and a thought of being part of the military establishment comes in the mind of every individual at some point in their life. Through Veer Yatra, MESCO aims to give the real-life experience to these aspirations – there is so much history, so much to see and so much to experience.

As ex-servicemen, we strongly feel the need to promote Military Tourism with a view to inculcate sense of patriotism among the children and youth of the country. Indian Military establishment has rich physical and emotional heritage that is worth exploring by all patriotic citizens.” Established in 2002, MESCO works towards the welfare and resettlement of ex-servicemen.

Hyperlocal faces the heat with PepperTap shutting operations in 10 cities

As the hyperlocal business models continue to grapple with challenges in the country, yet another player in the space has started facing the heat. This time, the hyperlocal grocery delivery app PepperTap, has decided to shut down operations in ten cities including metros like Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata. The app will now only operate in 8 cities and suburbs out of 18 it was presently catering to.

This move from the Snapdeal and Sequoia Capital backed company comes in the light of cost cutting due to fund crunch which is being faced by many hyperlocal providers in the recent times.

Company’s Co-Founder and CEO, Navneet Singh has recently confirmed the closure to media. As per Singh, larger chunk of PepperTap’s workers and delivery boys was on a contract basis and have now being let go in cities where the operations have shutdown. The company had around 2,500 employees including permanent staffs.

 

"Even though PepperTap has been able to establish itself as a leading hyperlocal grocery delivery service over the last one year, given the short- to mid-term investment climate outlook, we have decided to focus on depth rather than breadth,” said Singh.

“We are digging our heels in for the long term. We will focus on building a stellar customer experience by providing additional categories and services that differentiate us from our competition in cities where we continue to operate,” he added.

Though the company has shut operation in many cities but still operates in cities like Delhi, Gurgaon, Noida, Hyderabad and Pune which contributes as much as 70% of its total revenue. PepperTap had plans to expand into 75 cities when it announced its $36-million raise last year led by Snapdeal.

Though the hyperlocal grocery space kicked off on an exciting note and made investors pump millions of dollars into it, but with companies like Grofers and now PepperTap have started struggling hard for survival, viability of the industry is a big question. One of prime factors of this major crunch could be in the backdrop of eCommerce giants like Amazon etc who are stepping into the vertical for hyperlocal grocery delivery.

For the industry, hyperlocal in particular, fulfillment of orders without having an inventory-led model in place has now become one of the biggest challenges for players like PepperTap and Grofers.

The SoftBank-backed grocery delivery firm, Grofers, too ceased operations in nine cities last year saying non-metros and smaller markets did not contribute significantly to revenues.

The company secured about $120 million from SoftBank and now operations in 17 cities while other players like BigBasket covers 16 cities.
