Business Challenges
Having immense experience in the grocery business (Fabmall), the entrepreneurial team of five members founded online grocery store Big Basket in 2011. Though their e-commerce strategy removed the hassles of physical stores, they needed to strive hard to reach more customers to enhance business performance and achieve expected growth. Also, they needed to retain the interest of existing customers while acquiring new customers. The company also wanted to provide location based services such as push notifications to enable customers to make use of limited period offers and special offers.
