Why We Doubled Down On Our Partnership With Supertails: Building India’s One-Stop Destination for all Pet Care Needs

At DSGCP, we have been tracking the evolution of the pet category since we started in 2012. That is a full decade. Pets are an important component in our theme ‘the evolving family unit'. We expect this category to be huge in the future given the rapid adoption of pets among Millennials and GenZ. Our conviction in the category helped us invest in Supertails in early 2021 when the founders were still working on the idea. We love partnering with founders at an ideation stage on Day -1. It was a decision completely based on the founders’ ability to execute and build a category-defining brand in a segment that is expected to grow massively. Supertails has come a long way. The team has made great progress in building India’s best digital-first destination for all Pet Care needs.
