Fraazo announces refresh of its visual branding
Mumbai: In order to drive the brand messaging as a reliable grocery delivery platform, Fraazo has undertaken a rebranding exercise that will create an impact through the medium of visual branding with a revamped logo.
The new colours and illustrations signify the vividness of a farm and fresh produce, invoking a sense of happiness, positivity, and dynamism that aligns perfectly with the brand values. The vibrant colors and visual representations are strongly rooted in a simpler life and a deep appreciation for farm-fresh produce.
“With this rebranding, Fraazo aims to connect with consumers on a deeper level by bringing about a sensation of reliability and joyfulness,” said the brand in a statement.
Fraazo is also tapping consumer touchpoints by revamping the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) of its application, delivery fleet uniforms and produce packaging with motifs of fruits and vegetables which should garner more visibility and top-of-the-mind recall for the brand. They endeavor to become a trusted partner for customers who cook, providing them with the best quality fruits and vegetables.
With this change, the green grocer has planned aggressive marketing campaigns to reach out to a larger customer base for higher impact. To accomplish this, Fraazo will be launching out-of-home & print campaigns supported by multi-city on-ground activations.
“We are elated to announce the rebranding of Fraazo to support our renewed vision as well as branding. The change will help us communicate our brand values to all our stakeholders effectively,” said Fraazo co-founder and CEO Atul Kumar. “We are seen as a trustworthy, reliable partner offering farm-fresh groceries to our customers and to maximize impact and high visibility, we have refreshed the logo and visual branding to target all consumer touchpoints. We’re aiming to capture a larger market share and appeal to a wider scale of consumers. As a team, we’re extremely thrilled to connect with our customers on a deeper level through a refreshed look and feel of Fraazo’s visual elements.”

Google nears Nvidia in race for world’s most valuable company
Market cap gap narrows as Google hits $4.65 trillion, Nvidia at $4.86 trillion.
MUMBAI: In the AI gold rush, even the giants are sprinting and Google is suddenly gaining ground. Google is rapidly closing in on Nvidia in the race to become the world’s most valuable publicly listed company, with the gap between the two narrowing sharply amid diverging stock momentum. The tech giant’s market capitalisation has surged to around $4.65 trillion, following a more than 140 per cent rise in its share price over the past year.
That rally has added over $2.6 trillion in value in just 12 months, including nearly $900 billion since January alone. Its stock recently hovered at $381.80, slipping marginally by 0.04 per cent, but still reflecting strong upward momentum.
Nvidia, meanwhile, continues to hold the top spot with a valuation of approximately $4.86 trillion. The chipmaker crossed the $5 trillion milestone in October last year and peaked at $5.27 trillion on 27 April. However, its shares have largely plateaued over the past six months, rising just 0.2 per cent recently to $199.99.
The contrast in trajectories is striking. While Nvidia has seen relatively flat movement, Google has gained over 36 per cent in the same six-month period. Barron’s estimates suggest that if current trends hold, the valuation gap could shrink to as little as $190 million by the time Nvidia reports its first-quarter earnings on 20 May.
Daily momentum paints a similar picture. Nvidia recorded average daily gains of about 0.66 per cent last month, compared to Google’s stronger 1.42 per cent, an edge that could prove decisive in the short term.
Driving Google’s resurgence is its aggressive push into artificial intelligence across its ecosystem, from search and YouTube to cloud computing. The company has already invested $144 billion in capital expenditure over the past two years and plans to deploy a further $490 billion over the next two.
Its cloud division is also gathering pace. Google Cloud reported an order backlog of nearly $220 billion in the latest quarter, with total backlog touching a record $462 billion, around half of which is expected to be realised within two years. The company’s entry into chip sales is also beginning to factor into its growth narrative.
The last time Google briefly topped the S&P 500 by market value was in February 2016, when it edged past Apple for just two days. This time, the stakes and the numbers are far higher.
At the heart of the contest lies a single force: artificial intelligence. As both companies pour billions into infrastructure, chips and platforms, the leaderboard is no longer just about size, it is about who can scale the future faster.
