Most margins for mom and pop grocery stores are lost to middlemen. By sourcing products from local factories and manufacturers, consumers receive substantial discounts and more profits are shared throughout the supply chain.

Middle- and lower-income Indians don’t want more options, but more value for their money.

For an early stage start-up, your team can make or break the company. It’s very important to add high-quality, passionate talent and to focus on quality over quantity. You want to be working alongside individuals who are a good cultural fit — the ones who truly believe in your mission and goals.

Co-founder, DealShare

We started with very basic principles. One, that we didn't know anything about the customer. We knew we had to unlearn a lot of things. Two, we committed to trying to use whatever tools were available to us on the platform we were using for sales. These ideas guided our design — a super simple experience that gained immediate traction and resonated with audiences from day zero.
