What you do
A household in a village photographs the parchi it was always going to write, or says the list out loud. It reaches you as it is. You pack what you have, price each line as you weigh it, and mark anything you are out of.
What you get
Orders from villages that never came to your shop
No catalogue, no photographs, no prices to keep updated
A driver from the customer's own panchayat collects it
Udhaar with a record behind it — what was owed, since when, due by when
What it costs you
Nothing to join, and no commission on anything you sell — the bill settles to you whole, whatever the category and however much you sell. A flat monthly fee will replace commission for shops in time; we will publish the price before anybody is charged, and the first month is free. The household pays the carriage separately: ₹12 plus ₹3 a kilometre, so ₹27 over the usual five, shown to them before they confirm.
What you need
A shop at a block market, a phone, and somebody at the shop who can read a photograph of a list. That is all.
How to start
Tell us where the shop is. Somebody comes, sets it up on your phone, and stays until the first order has gone out.
