EVRE, one of India’s leading providers of electric vehicle (EV) charging integrated infrastructure, has partnered with Bengaluru-based fruits and vegetables retail company FreshWorld to provide electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions to fruit and vegetable vending e-carts in Bengaluru.

Announcing the partnership, Rajiv Rao, Founder and CEO FreshWorld said, “This partnership provides with the right domain support to manage our clean-mobility infrastructure, as we increase our focus to our customers, offerings and expansion.  Each extra charging hub will enable us with an opportunity to go farther into each territory using EVs and offer eco-friendly options of doorstep delivery of our products.  The only challenge being faced by a unique retailer like us was the support infrastructure to reach out to the wider audience.  With this hurdle out of way, we are looking forward to achieve our mission for pan-Indian operations while minimising our carbon footprint”.

Speaking about the partnership, Krishna K Jasti, Co-Founder and CEO of EVRE said, “It gives us pride in associating with a brand like FreshWorld that is utilizing the true benefits of clean-mobility for its core business.  This is another milestone in our journey as we are partner another important player in the EV ecosystem that mutually strengthens our 600-strong EV charging stations network across the country.  Backed by another partnership, we are firm and steadfast in our goal to achieve the 50,000 mark by end of 2023.”

The partnership is pegged to support a 1,000 strong EV fleet with 500 charging stations across 12 cities by 2022 Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad and others.
