Transforming Indian Dhandas into Global Businesses

Transforming Indian Dhandas into Global Businesses

The Indian business landscape is a unique puzzle. From your local mom and pop store to the un-missable ‘Halwai’ shop across the street, a beautiful entanglement of business with community is evident everywhere. While this cultural highlight makes us stand out in the offline space, our companies often struggle to scale beyond a point in the online world.

Managing essentials of an e-commerce venture like tracking inventories, performance marketing, on platform merchandising, cataloging, product development and so on, without the feedback mechanism of a traditional business, can prove to be a herculean challenge. Well, if you’re an entrepreneur stuck in this dreaded situation, Fret not Thyself!

Our customer Evenflow rescues businesses from this situation by acquiring and scaling e-comm led businesses.??

Connecting the dots looking backwards

Utsav (CEO & Co-Founder, Evenflow), in his own life, went from building and running a small passion project to overseeing international expansion at a hyper-growth startup and then using his learnings to replicate the success at yet another venture.?Essentially, in a span of 10 years, he lived through the entire magical journey that Evenflow has in store for its promising acquirees.

Coincidentally, it was around the same time that he came across the e-commerce aggregator?????model and Evenflow was born. With a dedicated team of experts from supply chain to marketing, the vision is to transform indigenous dhandas into globally renowned brands.

Fair evaluation, Focused acquisitions & Freedom of choice

Evenflow achieves a maximization of growth and acquiree satisfaction by ensuring an unwavering focus on high quality e-commerce brands & meticulously customized terms of acquisition.?

Raising funds is a significant step in a startup’s journey and it was at that point that they crossed paths with HSBC, when the bank’s FDI regulatory expertise helped them get through the arduous path seamlessly.

To streamline finances of Evenflow’s brands, HSBC provided them with a single sign on to its award winning offering, HSBCNet. It enables operations and tracking of all their associate entries on a unified platform. Cherry on the cake is the integration with ZOHO under the Beyond Banking proposition, to facilitate third party payments at the click of a button.

In addition to all the technical & servicing support, Evenflow also plays an active role in HSBC organized events where thought leaders come together to ideate towards a better future.

“For a tech enabled conglomerate of sellers, growth necessitates a truly digital infrastructure, backing day to day operations.

Evenflow, like all other great brands in history, will transform and elevate the entire online business ecosystem. As they march ahead, their practices would serve as a blueprint for smaller, newer companies to scale higher than ever. They’re really showing the world that sky’s the limit and, with each acquisition, they’re adding new stars to it!
