JioMart

JioMart is an online selling channel (format) of Reliance Retail Limited. Reliance Industries on May 23, 2020 expanded its JioMart service to customers across metro cities, after successfully conducting a pilot service across Navi Mumbai, Thane and Kalyan. JioMart is an Indian e-commerce company, headquartered in Navi Mumbai which started as a joint venture between Reliance Retail and Jio Platforms. JioMart initially focused on online groceries sales before expanding into other product categories such as fashion, home essentials, and lifestyle products. The platform was soft-launched in December 2019. A pilot was initially launched in select areas of Navi Mumbai, Thane and Kalyan in April 2020. In May 2020, JioMart was fully launched in 200 cities and towns across India. Within only a few days of its launch, the JioMart app surpassed one million downloads. In October 2020, JioMart signed an agreement with Infibeam Avenues. Under this deal, Jio will use Infibeam's solutions to power its e-commerce and digital payments services. Orders can be placed through the JioMart app available on Android and iOS. Users can also place an order on JioMart’s WhatsApp number 7000370003. It sends a link to the customer on WhatsApp that allows the user to pick the items and the order is then shared with the nearest mom-and-pop store. The kirana store alerts the customer when the order is ready. The customer goes to the store, pays and picks up the order. Some of the key features of JioMart are free home delivery, no minimum order value, express delivery, no questions asked return policy and more. More
