Healthcare Quick Commerce Supply Chain DocPharma Raises $2 Million
Indian healthcare quick commerce supply chain operator DocPharma has secured $2 million in funding to fuel its expansion across India.
DocPharma, an Indian startup focused on the supply chain for healthcare quick commerce, has raised $2 million in a Pre-Series A funding round led by Equentis, with participation from existing investor 100Unicorns, Vinners angel network, and other angel investors. The funds will be used to expand DocPharma's operations to 50 cities across India and establish 100 new licensed "dark stores," which are essentially distribution hubs for rapid fulfillment. Founded in 2024 by Saquib Ali, Shashank Rai, and Sagar Chauhan, DocPharma provides backend infrastructure for healthcare platforms. Its proprietary DocPharma One platform integrates warehouse management, inventory intelligence, order management, and fulfillment operations. The company claims its system enables the delivery of medicines and healthcare products in under 30 minutes without requiring partner platforms to build their own supply chains. Currently operating in over 12 cities, DocPharma reports having fulfilled over 800,000 orders with a fulfillment rate exceeding 95%. The sector for quick commerce, particularly in pharmaceutical deliveries, is experiencing rapid growth and attracting significant investment.
