B2B E-commerce to Transform Pakistan’s Grocery Sector

Pakistan’s grocery market, valued at a substantial $48 billion, presents a massive opportunity for digital innovation. The backbone of this market comprises nearly one million small, independent grocery stores, commonly known as ‘kiryana’ shops. This fragmented landscape presents a unique challenge and opportunity for businesses looking to disrupt the traditional supply chain.

B2B e-commerce platforms are emerging as a potential game-changer. By digitizing the process of connecting suppliers with these small retailers, these platforms can streamline operations, reduce costs, and enhance efficiency across the entire value chain.

To delve deeper into this transformative trend, Startup Syndicate is hosting a special event featuring Muhammad Owais Qureshi, co-founder of Dastgyr, a leading B2B e-commerce platform in Pakistan. The event, titled “FUNL-04: E-commerce & Retail Tech,” will take place on July 31st, 2024, at Katalyst Labs, Karachi.

Attendees will gain valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities within the B2B grocery sector, network with industry peers, and explore potential collaborations. To register, please visit: https://startupsyndicate.pk/event/funl-04-ecommerce-and-retail-tech/
