Queen’s Road :

A group of passionate foodies have come together to launch a website (www.homemadeonline.in) that brings women entrepreneurs and cottage industries into one domain to manufacture and distribute food products to consumers.

Through the platform, one can buy and sell homemade food products, which will be delivered fresh at the customer’s doorstep.

Ajanta Chandan, managing partner of Homemadeonline, says, “There are a lot of talented entrepreneurs amongst us who don’t know how to reach the masses. Our website gives them an opportunity to meet the demands of the people who are looking for non-commercial and organic food products online.”

Started two months ago, the website aims at bringing back the forgotten local food items and encouraging vendors to sell good quality products. Health-oriented people who could be working professionals, young students and diabetic patients are the company’s target group.

“We currently have around 1,000 regional food products on offer being supplied by over 200 registered vendors. Besides food, we are also promoting many entrepreneurs who are into handicrafts,” she adds.

Homemadeonline has on display a wide range of products including organic spices, masala powders, pickles, papad, homemade chocolate, herbal products, millet products, health and nutritional products, regional delicacies and healthy breakfast options.

Chandan says, “Within six months, we plan to expand our business in South India and in the years to come, we hope to spread all over India.”
