Note from Founder
Today’s urban Indian consumers and brands enjoy a mutually accessible eco-system and it is matter of a
few clicks, swipes or at best, phone calls that bridge the gap in accessing all their requirements.
However, for our fellow citizens residing in over 650,000 villages in India, whether it is depositing
money in a bank or selling their agri produce or even recharging their mobile phones, it is a daily
struggle, one filled with long commutes and even longer queues. They continue to remain widely left out
and inaccessible and businesses also find it hard to serve them. Rural commerce continues to be driven
by trust, relationships and physical interactions. Adding a layer of digital, unlocks its true potential
to create sustainable business solutions and livelihoods at scale.
Through Hesa, I have embarked on a mission to paint this very canvas and change the narrative for
India’s rural population by applying our experience of the rural markets and bringing together the
social, physical and digital elements. Our Agri Tech and Fin Tech verticals roll up to make Hesa, THE
Rural Tech enterprise. It is indeed an opportune time to connect India to Bharat phygitally as the
Indian rural marketplace is ready for disruption. We envision to lead this space. I welcome you to
partner me and Team Hesa in this exciting and extremely fulfilling journey.
