Win The Market: Business Community Welfare – A People First Approach To Business

Businesses across India thrive on their distribution partners’ strength and local expertise. From Steel, cement to paint, From Financial Services to FMCG, each sector’s sales and growth are catalysed by its value chain partners, i.e. Super stockists, Distributors, Dealers, Retailers, and Agents. However, despite their value, such Value Chain Partners (VCP) don’t get to share the organised credentials of the company they partner with. This prevents the partner merchants from the benefits extended to those inside the company – including social security.

The safety net of social security is a life enhancement for value chain partners. With social security for times of ill health, through retirement, and in case of unfortunate death, they and their families can find a platform of security.
