Former Udaan executives' quick fashion delivery startup Klydo halts operations

Quick fashion delivery startup Klydo has paused its consumer business and is pivoting to a new product direction, less than a year after its launch.

The startup has stopped accepting new orders on its platform. A notice on Klydo's website states that the app will remain available for the next few days for order history, customer support, and other services.

The message adds that Klydo has paused its current consumer offering and is "pivoting in a new direction" based on its learnings so far. It says the company is now focused on building the next chapter around "a sharper product vision," describing the move as "not goodbye" but "the beginning of what's next."

Founded in September 2025 by former Udaan executives Pradeep Yadav and Ankit Agarwal, Klydo began as a fashion marketplace targeting Gen Z shoppers before introducing a rapid delivery model. The startup delivered apparel, footwear, accessories, home decor, and gifting products in 15 to 30 minutes across Bengaluru.

The company had secured around $2 million in seed funding from K2 Capital Management and Veltis Capital. The Economic Timesreported that Klydo had explored raising a larger funding round of around $11 million to $12 million earlier this year, but the plans did not progress.

Entrackr has reached out to Klydo's co-founders for more information.

Klydo is the second rapid fashion delivery startup to exit the market within a year. Blip, another player in the segment, ceased operations in July 2025.

Despite the setback, investment activity in the category has continued. Startups such as Slikk, Zilo, and Knot have raised capital to expand their operations, while Myntra has been scaling its quick delivery service. Myntra Now, the company's 30 minute delivery vertical, was available across 10 cities as of February this year.

Klydo's move also follows a difficult period for fashion startups. In early 2024,former Myntra CEO Amar Nagaram led Virgio and B2B fashion platform Fashinza reportedly returned capital to investors after their respective business pivots failed to gain traction.
