Innovative Solutions for Gifting Market Challenges
Zuvees was founded in 2025 by Vijaya Kumar Jehadji and Abhishek Daya. Their goal was to tackle the main challenges in the gifting sector, such as inconsistent product quality and difficulties with international shipping and delivery. They achieve this through a model that focuses on trust, transparency, and ease of use.
Boosting Transparency and Customer Trust

The funds raised will be directed towards expanding into global markets, developing their AI systems for personalization and recommendations, and improving logistics and supply chains to make fulfillment and delivery operations more efficient.
Rapid Growth and International Reach
