Need for an Online B2B Platform: India is set to be the next big market for B2B E-Commerce with large number of entrepreneurs pouring in resources to leverage it.

Unbranded Products & Fragmented Supply Leading to Lack of Quality Checks: At a micro level, the fragmented nature of the supply side leads to various industry challenges such as inconsistent product quality and tedious vendor discovery as well as lack of sanitization & genuine quality checks. For manufacturers, this means underutilized capacities, inconsistent processes, and reduced margins. End result is a need of optimal demand and supply system with proper quality checking mechanism at every important threshold to maintain product quality and trust. Online B2B platforms are planning to cause disruptions in the un-organized space with strategic positioning of fulfillment centers & strong logistic network, coupled with important quality checking thresholds. They are also looking forward to partner with many foreign manufactures that are looking for the right quantum of business from end user industries and have advanced production processes to meet the demand for high value customer segments.
Rising Investments and Future Growth: India ranks among the best countries to invest in retail space. Factors that make India so attractive include second largest population in the world, a middle class customer segment of more than 600 million people, increasing .urbanization, rising household incomes, connected rural consumers and increasing consumer spending. Also, the current pandemic situation is just another example of how an online platform can help the industry continue on its growth path and further provide value addition as continuity of commerce activities is of utmost importance in today’s scenario. As the country faces elongated period of lockdown & a full stop at various commercial activities, online platforms will be the way forward as it connects various MSMEs across India with the tech enabled services & organized logistic network for reaching across to its customers.
