Kandawale is a B2B e-commerce website of a startup—OhMyDealer Trading Pvt Ltd—based in Pune, India. It sources onions directly from farmers/APMCs, brands them, and delivers them to bulk buyers, thereby bypassing middlemen in the Indian agricultural market.
Onion price variations in India are widely attributed to traders' cartels manipulating prices by hoarding and other bad practices.[1]
When prices drop, farmers dump their produce at agricultural markets; they cannot even recover the transport cost of bringing onions to market![2] Numerous studies have suggested that free trade of onions in India and better market dynamics would make onion pricing more justifiable and transparent.[3]
The Prime Minister of India has proposed to start e-NAM Archived 2017-06-09 at the Wayback Machine portal across major APMCs of India to facilitate online trading of agricultural products for the betterment of farmers and buyers![4] On similar lines, Kandawale.com brings traders and farmers onto the same platform to facilitate sourcing onions directly from the farm. Onion farmers across India can sell their produce to traders at better prices through the 'Kandawale' brand without any exposure to cost escalations from middlemen!
