There it sits, next to nothing on the wall, attracting no attention to itself. Except when it is in use, and a tiny, green light flashes to tell its owner that the box is doing its job.

The quick-commerce startup weighs a valuation cut or finding alternative funding to stay afloat as investor appetite for loss-making businesses weakens.
Bistro may look like a response to Swiggy and Rapido’s 'budget' food delivery apps, but the similarities end at affordability—the playbooks are fundamentally different.
