Early Times Report
SRINAGAR, Feb 2: A local marketplace e-commerce selling website Jhelum Cart launched their application here. Jhelum Cart’s dedicated seller application provides sellers an ease of managing their inventory and a secure platform for an improved engagement with customers.
The website aims to provide a foolproof e-commerce platform, safe and enjoyable for both buyers and sellers with themes to achieve efficiency, user-friendliness and empowerment. The application is owned by a trio of friends, Ahmed Nabeel, Naveed Qadir Wani and Arif Ahmed Najar.
Co-founder of the website, Ahmed Nabeel made the audience acquainted with the idea of Jhelum Cart through a powerpoint presentation. He explained the inception of his idea and the reasons which led him and his friends to crystallize their ideas. Nabeel said, “We tend to complain a lot about the lack of opportunities; however we do not take necessary steps to create ones for ourselves and our fellow people in Kashmir, so we took a leap in the area where we found a lot of scope of doing work.”
Bestseller bookshop owner, Sani Yasnain while praising the endeavor of the trio congratulated them for opening a “novel venture” in Kashmir. Yasnain explained that despite providing maximum discount on the books, a platform like Jhelum cart will help us to reach out to more customers. “It is an opportunity to integrate for selling on Jhelum Cart as it will boost local business while the buying/selling market place is concentrated and thrived locally.”
Artist Roshan Illahi (MC Kash) sharing his views said that it is a matter of pride to see Kashmiri youngsters defying the odds in their place and taking strides in innovations. “It is extremely joyous to see Kashmiris competing with technology giants despite internet restriction and other de-motivating factors in place.”
The application provides sellers with tutorial sessions on the usage of the seller dashboard to upload and manage their inventory. The application gives sellers a scope to target local, national and international customers delivering products in one day's time within the Srinagar area.
50 sellers have signed up with Jhelum Cart so far. Some of their major sellers include Kohli Brothers, Cash N Carry, Bestseller Bookstore, Shoe Universe, Black Bough, Gladsome, Apple Valley, Black Burn, Royal Life and others. The launch was attended by local entrepreneurs, journalists and young business enthusiasts. |
