Social commerce platform Meesho runs a three-sided marketplace with suppliers, resellers and the customer, where the reseller buys goods such as unbranded fashion items from the supplier and sells it via platforms such as WhatsApp and Instagram. While Meesho started out this way, its share of direct sales has also been going up, pitting it directly against incumbents Flipkart and Amazon. It was founded in 2015 by IIT-Delhi alumni Vidit Aatrey and Sanjeev Barnwal. It provides small entrepreneurs with products and tools to start, maintain, and grow their businesses. It facilitates a three-way marketplace enabling resellers, SMBs, and micro-entrepreneurs across India to connect with potential buyers using social media. The company claims that a majority of these entrepreneurs are women who are realizing their dream of owning a business for the first time. Meesho is also Facebook's first investment in an Indian startup. The Bangalore-based startup last announced a fund raise of $50 million in a Series-C funding round from Shunwei Capital, DST Partners and RPS Ventures. The company on September 30, 2021 said it has raised $570 million in its Series F round led by Fidelity Management and B Capital, more than doubling its valuation to $4.9 billion in five months, the latest sign of the funding frenzy underway for Indian startups.
