#1 85% of Fresh Fruits & Vegetables are Sourced Directly from 20,000+ Farmers

Once the produce is deposited at one of bigbasket’s collection centers, it is handpicked, sorted and moved to bigbasket warehouses where it is cleaned and packed for delivery.

#2 Work Directly with Brands

As India’s largest online supermarket, bigbasket also works directly with over 1000 brands and sources directly from company certified distributors. bigbasket negotiates prices of products directly with the brands and are able to get volume discounts from brands since they stock and sell huge volumes. By directly dealing with the brands, not only are they able to get products at low prices, they also eliminate any middle-men or added costs. These discounts are passed on to customers by offering branded foods and other products at less than MRP.

# 3 Curating Quality Products through Own Brands
