2. Need for the platform
Rural rajasthan is full of un-tapped skilled labour and artisans.
The hundreds of year old traditions and culture preserved in such form of art and artistic products are very valuable.
The potential market for such products is in big cities specially with tourists, which are not directly accessible for the artisans
There is a huge set of skills available in Rural areas which is under-utilized due to lack of medium for skill discovery
The products made in rural Rajasthan are sold for high costs, but the benefits are not reflected to the producers

3. Existing solutions
Multiple existing B2B ecommerce solutions – Amazon, Snapdeal, eBazaar
Middle agent gets the maximum benefit from the sale
Artisan cant add new products directly to the platform, there is need of intermediate vendor
Artisan sells goods for low cost to agents, who sell it ahead for a very high cost
Portals like Snapdeal need company PAN number for adding new product to their website
There is no tracking of agricultural produce – when it leaves farmers to when it reaches end customers
There is demand for skills in cities and lack of opportunities in villages : No platform to connect these

4. The platform
An easy and efficient way to connect with, track and enable skills and products
POC Android application, can be easily embedded with eMitra kiosks
Not a traditional B2B e-commerce system
Enable every single artisan/producer/labour to reach out to the potential markets, no need to rely on anyone
Transparency and tracking resources assures maximum profits as no intermediate agents asking commission.
Customize products for customers
Integration with Bhamashah assures credibility and eliminates financial logistics issues
