As per Swati Gupta, co-founder and CEO, Industrybuying “Our reach of over 20000+ pincodes gives us pan India presence. We are well covered and this shows in our order distribution as our orders are spread across a wide geography. It is exciting for us to know that there is immense amount of unmet demand waiting to be tapped all over India. We analyse and map the selling categories with region and accordingly tweak our targeting strategies. For example unlike Safety Equipments which is a topseller in most other regions, TamilNadu sees a lot of demand for Diesel Engine Pumpsets. We take a lot of strategic and marketing calls based on such and many more data points.”
