Getting Ready for yuOrders

What could possibly be common to the local rum, Ferrero Rocher chocolate and milk powder?

They are the top reasons why a traditional wholesaler has started their own delivery service today for yuOrders from yufin merchants. The partner wholesaler is a traditional and popular source for small businesses to procure their weekly stocks.

The wholesaler gets new merchants, and intelligence on SKUs with low / no stocks gets back to their office administrators faster so they can serve even their walk-in shoppers better.

yufin is bringing hyperlocal analytics at SKU level on consumption and trends faster to both small businesses and wholesalers. So, the wholesaler can use this information in their discussions with the liquor, chocolate, and milk powder brands and the small businesses using the yufin app can order more of what sells faster, and at better margins.

The biggest determinant of this online to offline to online process succeeding is not the technology or the slick UI of the yufin mobile application. It is the yufin team on the ground that has guided the wholesaler staff on the floor and in their warehouses to show how it helps them and grows the business for the owners.

Digital transformation is still ‘digital’ enabling and improving the existing ‘physical’ in tier 2 and tier 3 cities. Cash on delivery to start and digital payments acceptance as it expands.
