Overview

My Pahadi Dukan connects hidden Himalayan producers with eco-conscious buyers across India by offering authentic, organic, and high-quality products directly from the source. As a new entrant, the brand aimed to establish a strong presence and scale its reach through marketplaces & social media.

Initial Situation

Challenges

  • Limited Visibility: As a new player, My Pahadi Dukan struggled to reach potential customers on competitive platforms like Amazon.
  • Low Brand Awareness: Customers were unfamiliar with the brand and its Himalayan value proposition.
  • Operational Gaps: Managing listings, advertising, inventory, etc required marketplace expertise that the internal team did not possess.
  • Revenue Growth Constraints: Despite offering high-quality products, sales volumes remained modest. The brand needed a structured, data-driven strategy to scale revenue efficiently and sustainably.
