FAVOURABLE POLICIES Udaan has established several friendly policies with the objective of faster listings on the platform.

Udaan renders credit, takes risks, and supports the industry as a whole, making it possible for retailers to buy from markets thought to be impenetrable, and helping sellers connect with thousands of retailers from across the country. This has resulted in the dawn of a new kind of business arrangement, where retailers are growing at a phenomenal pace and traders are confidently launching newer products and brands. Udaan has successfully extended credit to around 2,00,000+ retailers all over India, with an aim to enable credit to over 50 per cent of retailers by the end of the year,” says Aggarwal. BUYERS SPEAK Buyers agree that the platform has helped them. Manufacturer Aman Yadav, Kaezri, New Delhi, says, “When we partnered with Udaan, our aim was not only to sell but also build a brand. We have successfully launched branded items exclusively on Udaan and received an overwhelming response. With Udaan, I have seen many people in my fraternity grow tremendously in a very short time.” Brands, too, have found that the platform has aided in making purchasing decisions simple. “When I started my business, I was not sure of how to begin and how to get the right collection for my store. But when I found out about Udaan, I was extremely relieved. I have been able to order inner wear, kurtis, and tops, all on Udaan. At the moment, over 90 per cent of my in-store stock has been ordered on Udaan, which has been my guiding light,” says Saavi Jagtap, Saavi Ladies Shop, Pune. And certainly, the platform needs no better validation than actual users, who are arguably its best ambassadors. APPAREL I June 2019 I 67
