Dhobhal said “In India, about 3,50,000 registered and licensed agri-input retailers cater to 150 million farmers. Most of these agri-input products are distributed through the traditional network (offline). By collaborating with nurture.retail to launch an online-exclusive product line, we can serve untapped markets and leverage digital channels as growth levers. This step also safeguards the interest of leading agri-input companies by ensuring that the traditional distribution channels remain unaffected.”
Vishal Dubey, Business Head, nurture.retail, said, “The online-exclusive products will be available in 14 States with a 72-hour delivery promise. Agri-retailers can purchase the best agri-inputs through the crop life cycle at affordable rates. We will rapidly add more online exclusive products, unlocking new avenues for growth for agri-retailers.”
