Agrotrade Retailers Association

You can find us at Flat B-702 in the Green Woods building, which is located on Salunke Vihar Road in Wanawadi, Pune. We are a retailers association focused on the agrotrade sector. Instead of a shop or a factory, we operate more as a hub where different retailers can connect and discuss their business. The office is in a residential area, so it’s pretty quiet compared to the main road traffic. We spend a lot of time on the computer and in meetings, trying to figure out how to help the small retailers who sell agricultural goods. It is a lot of talk about daily prices, supply chains, and the common problems that shop owners face. We aren't a big corporation; we are just a group of people trying to organize things a bit better for everyone involved in the trade. The flat is usually full of papers, folders, and some tea cups because we have people dropping by quite often to chat about work. We don't have a big budget for fancy decor, so it’s just a simple office setup with some chairs and a wooden table. Living and working in Pune means we are close to a lot of the big markets, which is very helpful for our work. We try to keep our communication simple and direct without any fluff. Most of us have been in the retail side of things for years. We know it’s tough.
