Disruption means two things to us: 1. Disrupting the way kirana stores procure goods Traditionally Kirana stores were dealing with 80 sales reps for placing 400 orders in a month to now with ShopKirana order any brand at any time at the touch of your finger. Kirana stores suffering from stockouts and supply chain inefficiencies to now being adequately stocked up and having more variety of brands at the store. 2. Disrupting the monopolies of the FMCG brands India is an oligopoly market where 2-3 incumbent brands hold 80% market share. D2C and challenger brands are on the rise, and with the help of platforms like ShopKirana offering a ready-to-use launch platform (reach the rising middle class of India via kirana stores) these D2C/ Challenger brands can take the fight to the incumbents and provide Indian consumers with more choice and better value. Thank you, The Economic Times for recognizing ShopKirana as the Disruptive Retailer of the Year at The Economic Times Great Indian Retail Awards.

1moShopKirana is doing well but from retailer's perspective I still would like to see couple of things getting improved. This includes not just ShopKirana but also BigBasket B2B and Jiomart B2B. 1. Availability of small fmcg player's brands who have fewer star SKUs in their assortment. 2. Local and regional assortments especially in food and staples category. 3. Consistent availability on what are part of B2B supplier's assortment
