We are seeing 50-100% growth in the number of retailers buying categories like Biscuits & Snacks, Health Drinks, Tea & Coffee, Soaps, and Home Care on the Jumbotail platform indicating a higher consumption from local Kirana shops during lockdowns. The superfast adoption of eCommerce by kirana retailers all across the country is a testament to the strong network effects of our business and the scalability of our supply chains.”
