E-GROCERY
INDUSTRY
DIGITAL MEDIA STRATEGY
OVERVIEW OFTHE INDUSTRY
• The reason for the relatively slower growth in the spread of e-grocers is because
storage of perishable items is more expensive than the storage of non-
perishable items, which is why most players operate in cities and have not yet
expanded to even an entire state.
• However, urban India’s increasing shortage of time is fuelling the growth of
online grocery and in 2015 at least 20 metropolises are expected to be fully
covered by e-grocers.
• Also, the online grocery space in India has reached new heights in the past few
months with investors pouring millions into this space and big corporates like
Tata and Reliance and Ecommerce giants like Flipkart,Amazon & Snapdeal
foraying to capture this multi billion dollar market.
