Over the last few years, we have built deep trust with kirana retailers by combining community, local insights and commerce. Meesho understands Bharat at scale and shares our belief in serving underserved users through technology. With this partnership, we can accelerate our mission of building India’s most trusted digital commerce network for kiranas,” said Anshul Gupta, Co-founder and CEO of Kirana Club.
