Minko Business Accelerator for FMCG Distributors in India

Minko Business Accelerator for FMCG Distributors in India

Happy New Year Folks.

It's quite interesting that the first day of the new financial year is also called April Fools Day - a day which stemmed from the custom of setting aside a day to play harmless pranks on people around us (as per Wikipedia)

So maybe it's not an ideal day to launch a new program lest you think we are pranking you - Rest assured that this is not an April Fools prank.

I personally like to celebrate New Year's on April 1st - It's the start of a new financial year - a new year full of opportunities and optimism to continue building your business.

The Minko Business Accelerator (MBA+) program is an initiative to help ambitious MSME business owners, accelerate and grow their business.

This year, our focus is to work with 1000 FMCG Distributors across India - and aim to double their business in 12 months.

The premise is simple - Using our tech, access to capital and innovating on their sales and delivery process can help distributors get

  1. Access to cheaper capital - more rotation = higher ROI
  2. Tech to compete with Amazon - Retain customers ( retailers / kirana owners)
  3. Tools provide better services to customers - free credit period, instant offers, cash back in gold, health insurance etc
  4. Expertise to lower costs - cash collection, delivery optimisation, online ordering etc

And that's not all - when that happens, it will result in doubling of business of ~ 5 - 10 lakh small shop owners. They currently earn on average about Rs 25k per month.

Personally, this is the part that excites me the most - What can a shop owner in small town do in India do with an extra Rs 25k in income per month?

A lot - Better education opportunities for their kids, ability to invest savings for retirement, buy health insurance so they don't go into debt when a medical emergency strikes .... I could go on but you get the drift.

If you are an ambitious FMCG distributor in India, and would like to learn how Minko can help you grow, please register here https://bit.ly/MinkoBusinessAcceleratorProgram

The cost of this program will be initially funded by Minko and FMCG companies.

Happy New Year Ahead ? ???? ??


P.S: If you are Sales or Business Head at an FMCG company, and would like to offer this opportunity to your distributors, please DM me.
