Starting an e-grocery startup in India.

Grocery shop is something that everyone needs, food is the basic necessity and so are the Grocery Shops. Selling food items in India is the most profitable business of all time, this is the only business that you can start almost anywhere and get good profits. But how to deal with this new era of online shopping people?

The answer is to get your shop online. We live in a world of lazy people and most of the people doesn’t like to shop things like groceries or daily food items but as stated above it’s a necessity that none can ignore.

Big-basket e-Grocery Startup.

But why should you get an online grocery store?

Imagine you already own a grocery store in your locality and you are good enough to fulfill your daily local customers’ need and get profits.

Hence you are happy with your business but what if I say that you can earn 10 times more profit than your current profit?

After the jio revolution, everyone has started to realise the power of internet in India. Online shopping sites provide you anything you need like buying clothes, ticket reservation, buying furniture, electronics, whatever you need, you can find online in reasonable rates.

Now, if you are not convinced till now, lets scratch some more ways to convince you.

Lazy day, none wants to shop but feeling hungry.

This is the common issue of every third Indian. We like to sit and get whatever we need right at our doorsteps.

We can call or order online for the things we need and get it as soon as possible. Help the lazy Indians and they will get converted to your everyday customers from new customers.

You wont need a store but just a warehouse.

Local Grocery stores need a shop and a warehouse but as an e-grocer shop owner you will just need a warehouse in a specific area. This will not only help you to save money but will also be easy to manage.

Big online Grocery stores are still not in every part.

This is big. India is a huge country and groceries are needed by everyone but the big e-grocery sites are still not able to get into every part of India but you being a local e-grocer can acquire your whole local area.

What you need to do is to get your business online and provide your customers your basic contact details with all the items you provide all at a same place that is your website.

Moreover, you may also provide them an easy way to select items, checkout and get whatever they chose at their doorsteps.

Be ahead of your local competitors.

Local grocery stores have the biggest competition everywhere. What if if someone else buys the same product at the same price but not from you but from the store just beside yours? You’ll definitely not feel the best.

Use your brain and get your store online so that the person will never go to your competitor’s place but rather he/she will buy it sitting at their homes directly from you.

Woohhooo!

Attract people with showing off your best offers.

Who doesn’t like the free stuffs? Attract more people to be your regular customers with offers like Buy One Get One Free. This is the tactic every huge Super Market Owners use.

You must have heard of Big Bazar offers Buy this and get this free. They mostly advertise these kinda offers in local newspaper but you being more intelligent can show off your offers in a better way.

Despite of being a small and local Grocery Startup you can attract more people than those huge brands. None thinks of the brands in case of packed food items but what they think of is how much they save.

Just roll your dice and win the game.

Get easily connected to your customers.

This is the biggest advantage of internet, it makes interactions easier. You can easily know your customers, talk to them and know the pluses and minuses of your service.

This can improve you a lot and help you get even bigger.than ever.

No need to worry about the old method of ‘Bargain’.

With an e-grocery startup whenever someone orders through your website the money goes directly into your account and hence there is no issue of bargain.

The person will need to buy the item as per the written price. But be honest and provide the right items at the right prices.

Summary

So don’t think a lot, if you are planning to have an e-grocery startup then this is the right time. Right now India is the biggest consumer of Internet all over the world and there is not that much of competition at the local level in this field.
