In an age marked by digital innovation and technological advancements, the conventional supply chain landscape has undergone a remarkable transformation. Leading this paradigm shift is SupplyNote, a pioneering firm that has not only adapted to the changing times but has also played a pivotal role in reshaping the entire supply chain industry.
The journey of SupplyNote began in 2019, when a group of forward-thinking entrepreneurs recognized a pressing need within the supply chain sector. They identified an opportunity to revolutionize the way organizations manage their procurement and fulfillment operations through digitization and automation. Thus, SupplyNote was born with an unwavering mission to streamline and modernize supply chain management.
Initially conceived as a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution to tackle supply chain challenges, SupplyNote’s evolution has been nothing short of extraordinary. Today, it stands as a full-stack powerhouse, reshaping the supply chain landscape through its innovative approaches and cutting-edge technologies.
Recently, in an exclusive interview with Snackfax, Kushang, the Founder of SupplyNote, shared illuminating insights. Here are the edited excerpts from the interaction..
Snackfax: What is the challenge your brand addresses and resolves?
Kushang: At SupplyNote, our primary focus is addressing challenges within the food and beverage industry, particularly in the Indian ecosystem and globally, with a strong emphasis on India in the coming decade. Over time, we’ve developed a range of products designed to facilitate digitization and automation within the supply chain process. While our main objective centers on assisting restaurants in making informed purchasing decisions through automation in inventory management, kitchen operations, and other processes, we’ve also ventured into streamlining billing processes through our acquisition of Pacify. Pacify enables us to gather sales data, thereby automating the backend operations, not relying on rule-based systems but a comprehensive stack-based approach.
In addition to these efforts, we offer services like Supply Link, which helps large restaurants distribute their products efficiently. Furthermore, we provide a marketplace inventory platform that allows smaller restaurants to procure supplies at competitive prices, eliminating middlemen and potentially saving them 8-10% on their bottom line, thus promoting their growth.
Currently, we offer four distinct products that cater to various stages of the restaurant business. Our immediate mission is to digitize the backend of the restaurant ecosystem within the next 5 to 8 years. Beyond that, we aspire to tackle even larger and more complex challenges in different regions.
Snackfax: Could you elaborate on the technological adaptation within the food industry?
Kushang: When you look at India, it’s predominantly a standalone market. Approximately 92% of the restaurants fall into this category. Within this landscape, we have two distinct types of standalones. First, there are the classic mithaiwalas, or what we often refer to as small, family-run or pop shops that serve exceptional food in local neighborhoods. These restaurants typically have a steady cash flow, a set group of vendors, and well-established processes. They are content operating in just one or two locations.
The second category consists of street vendors, similar to what Singaporeans refer to as “hawkers.” India has a vast market of street vendors as well. This segment is substantial and dynamic. To answer your question, yes, technology adoption has been quite radical, particularly among the larger neighborhood shops where there’s a significant cash flow. These businesses have embraced point-of-sale systems, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic when they also ventured into food delivery services.
Furthermore, I’d like to highlight a noteworthy trend that has persisted and thrived in this sector: digital payments. While there was already a shift towards digital payments, the adoption of QR-based payments has been especially prominent in the smaller restaurant segment.
Snackfax: Could you elaborate on the commercial aspects, such as point-of-sale integration, and how this fits into the broader picture?
Kushang: Pricing in any industry typically mirrors the level of comfort customers have with the product or service. Some industries are more focused on understanding the return on investment (ROI), while others may be more flexible due to higher profit margins. Unfortunately, in the food industry, it tends to lean towards the former. Entrepreneurs in this sector are often cautious with their investments, preferring to evaluate ROI before committing financial resources. However, once they recognize the value, they can be quite generous in their support.
Our pricing strategy has been aligned with market competition. We offer quarterly, half-yearly, and annual subscription packages for bulk purchases, with corresponding discounts. This approach has been our standard practice. In India, the price range for our software typically falls between $150 and $200, which caters to the majority of our customers. While there is a smaller segment willing to invest more, our primary focus remains on serving the needs of the larger audience, which constitutes around 70% of our user base.
SupplyNote made a strategic move by acquiring Posify, marking a pivotal step towards becoming a comprehensive full-stack solution provider. This acquisition seamlessly integrated point-of-sale (POS) capabilities into their platform, facilitating a holistic approach to supply chain management.
In 2022, SupplyNote expanded its horizons with the introduction of a Marketplace. This groundbreaking innovation redefined how small-scale businesses accessed essential goods, offering the convenience of next-day supply deliveries.
The continuous growth and evolution of SupplyNote are anchored in their steadfast commitment to core values. Values such as Respect, Trust, Commitment, and Delivery have fostered a culture of excellence within the organization.
Looking forward, SupplyNote’s journey is still unfolding. Equipped with a full-stack solution and a thriving marketplace, they are positioned to make a significant impact in the supply chain industry. Their dedication to catering to diverse business needs, irrespective of size or industry, positions them as pioneers in the field of supply chain management.
In an era where efficiency and adaptability are critical, SupplyNote’s transformation from a SaaS provider to a full-stack solution exemplifies resilience and a steadfast mission. Their narrative stands as a compelling testament to how innovation and unwavering dedication can lead to remarkable success, reshaping entire industries and leaving an enduring mark.
Chaiiwala, the renowned Indian street food quick-service restaurant brand, has revealed its collaboration with investment firm Lote Global to facilitate its global expansion efforts.
Lote Global Investments stands as a prominent Shariah-compliant investment firm, placing strategic emphasis on Private Equity and Real Estate. Originating from a well-established international family enterprise, the company has curated a robust portfolio of distinctive investments recognized for their ethical foundation, exceptional performance, and enduring nature.
Chaiiwalla expressed its aim to establish 500 restaurants in both domestic and international locations, focusing on significant growth markets such as the USA, Canada, and the Middle East.
In order to support their ambitious global expansion, Chaiiwala is dedicated to improving its operational capacities, supply chain infrastructure, and digital offerings in the selected markets. Currently, the brand operates 90 stores worldwide, with the goal of reaching 100 by the end of the year, including new locations in the UAE and Canada.
Established in 2015, Chaiiwala brings together the rich flavors of authentic Indian street food with a Western influence. Their extensive menu caters to breakfast, lunch, dessert, and all-day cravings, featuring standout offerings such as Karak Chaii, Caramel Chaii, English-Ish Breakfast, Masala Chips, and Karachi Bun Kebab.
The brand employs diverse formats for its stores, including High Street locations, compact kiosks, and units in retail parks. Notably, Chaiiwala expanded its offerings to include a drive-thru business in the UK, providing Indian street food since the launch of its Bolton store last year.
Muhummed Ibrahim, the Chief Executive Officer of Chaiiwala, conveyed his enthusiasm regarding the collaboration and its potential to influence the Indian street food market.
Ibrahim emphasized that Lote Global’s wealth of experience and expertise in their primary target markets will be of great value to their strategic plans.
“We are pleased to welcome Lote Global to the team as we solidify our position as the leading Indian street food business and shape the Chaiiwala brand for its next global chapter. We have already laid the groundwork for our expansion in these crucial markets and have confidence that our partners will help us seize the significant global opportunity that lies ahead,” he said.
Chaiiwala received advisory services from KPMG (CF and Tax), Freeths (Legal), and GT (VDD), whereas Lote Global enlisted the expertise of PwC (Financial DD and Tax DD), Addleshaw Goddard (Legal), OC&C (Commercial DD), Cross8 (Corporate DD), and Al Maqasid (Shariah DD) as part of the deal.
Dubai-based Jumeirah Group has set its sights on an ambitious goal of doubling its property portfolio by 2030. According to Kirti Anchan, General Manager of Jumeirah Emirates Towers, the luxury hotel chain, which currently operates 27 hotels worldwide, including 12 in the United Arab Emirates, is also eager to establish a high-end hotel in India.
“We are on a growth path and we want to double our property portfolio by 2030. India being the key market for Jumeirah Hotels and Resorts, we are definitely keen (on opening a hotel in India).
“Our focus will be the ultra-luxury market. So we want to be in the right city with the right product. We are searching for such a location and hopefully we will see something soon in India,” said Anchan.
As per Anchan, the Jumeirah Group has expanded its presence in the past 18 months with the opening of new properties in Oman, the Maldives, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia. Additionally, the group has two more properties in development in Saudi Arabia.
“High level discussions are going on. But, yes, we are interested in opening a hotel in India. We all agree to be in India in view of travellers’ curiosity and economic growth of India” Anchan told reporters at the roadshow.
Together with other senior executives from the group, he visited the city for a roadshow aimed at engaging with local tour operators and travel agents.
“The purpose of the roadshow is to expand the network within India, because this country has a big potential. Travel trend shows that Indians, irrespective of their age, are curious to travel, they want to explore more,” said Anchan.
He emphasized that the group views India as a crucial market, noting that the influx of Indian visitors to Dubai has been steadily increasing. This growth can be attributed primarily to improved air connectivity and a simplified visa process.
“In comparison to last year, Indians coming to Dubai have grown by 24 per cent. Today, 80 flights operate between Dubai and India every day and more flights are getting added every week,” he said.
According to him, there has been a surge in travel following the COVID-19 pandemic, driven by a significant increase in people’s desire to explore. He also pointed out that individuals have now prioritized the importance of global exploration over strict financial savings.
“At Jumeirah hotels in Dubai, 20 per cent customers who check-in are Indians. They come there for different reasons, such as to attend exhibitions and conferences.
“Dubai has become an extended city of India. It takes a three-hour flight from India to reach Dubai. Another reason why more Indians are visiting Dubai is the effort put in by the UAE government to ease-up visa process,” said Anchan.
Furthermore, he mentioned that among all the Indian guests staying at Jumeirah hotels worldwide, 20 percent originate from the state of Gujarat.
Coca-Cola India, the beverage manufacturer, revealed on Wednesday that it is introducing its Coca-Cola cola brand in rPET bottles, available in 250 ml and 750 ml pack sizes. These bottles are being produced in collaboration with their primary bottling partners. The company emphasized that these bottles are crafted entirely from 100% food-grade rPET, excluding caps and labels, and they aim to raise consumer awareness through this packaging innovation.
Sanjeev Agarwal, chairman of Coca-Cola’s franchise bottling partner Moon Beverages, part of MMG Group, said, “Recycled PET is a big move in the right direction to embrace plastic circularity in India. Our new bottles made with food-grade rPET are recyclable and can become another bottle giving it another life.”
The company, known for producing Sprite and Minute Maid juices, has extended its 100% rPET bottle offering to more than 40 markets. This move brings them closer to their goal of achieving bottles with 50% recycled content by the year 2030.
In a statement, Enrique Ackermann, the Vice President of Technical and Innovation for Coca-Cola India and Southwest Asia, mentioned that the company is actively engaged in boosting the recycled materials used in its packaging, expanding the utilization of refillable bottles, and enhancing the collection of packaging for recycling purposes.
Coca-Cola has announced that consumers have the option to recycle empty PET bottles through conveniently located drop-off points or reverse vending machines (RVMs). This initiative complements an existing “return and recycle” program in partnership with the e-commerce platform Zepto, which primarily focuses on collecting PET bottles directly from consumers.
Ahead of the commencement of its festive season sale, “The Big Billion Days 2023,” Indian e-commerce giant Flipkart unveiled a ChatGPT-driven shopping assistant named “Flippi” on Wednesday.
Furthermore, the company under Walmart’s ownership introduced a video-based browsing feature called ‘Vibes’ as an integral component of its ‘SwipeScreen’ experience. Flipkart users can engage with Flippi by swiping left on the homepage, and, conversely, they can explore products through video mode by swiping right.
According to a statement from Flipkart, the company aims to provide a personalized and streamlined user experience through these new features.
Flippi utilizes generative AI and is designed to assist customers who struggle with decision-making. It will function as an expert advisor, helping these users find the most suitable product to meet their needs. Currently, Flippi is exclusively available in English, but the company has plans to expand its availability to other languages and introduce voice support in the near future, making it accessible to a more diverse user base.
Conversely, Vibes offers buyers a product video experience, recreating the traditional window-shopping experience.
Flipkart emphasized that video engagement plays a pivotal role in facilitating customers’ shopping decisions with greater ease. Through Vibes, the prominent e-commerce platform intends to empower consumers to relish an engaging and enjoyable product discovery experience by viewing a vast collection of short videos.
Amidst the growing interest in generative AI from both companies and users, Flipkart and its competitor Amazon are introducing novel features harnessing this technology for the benefit of their customers and sellers in anticipation of their upcoming festive season sales.
Last month, Flipkart rolled out an AI-powered catalog designer aimed at assisting sellers in crafting compelling product catalogs, while Amazon introduced a suite of generative AI tools designed to help sellers improve their product descriptions, titles, and listing details.
Flipkart’s “The Big Billion Days” is set to kick off on October 8 and will continue through October 15. Meanwhile, Amazon originally announced its “Great Indian Festival” to begin on October 10 but later adjusted the date to align with Flipkart’s schedule.
In the meantime, Meesho’s highly anticipated mega-sale is slated to commence on October 6.
Following an extended “weekend,” restaurant owners seeking to restock their alcohol inventory visited the excise portal. To the surprise of many smaller establishments, there were no brands listed for purchase. It soon became apparent that this issue stemmed from the expiration of wholesale liquor licenses. By the time suppliers temporarily halted sales to renew their licenses, the restaurants that ordered in bulk had already purchased whatever was accessible, anticipating a lengthy renewal process that would result in a shortage of liquor in the city.
Following the withdrawal of the controversial new excise policy, the previous policy was reinstated in March for a six-month period. During this time, the Delhi government was expected to develop a new policy for 2023-24. However, as September came to a close, no new policy had been announced, and the excise department declared that L1, L1F, and L2 wholesale licenses needed to be renewed starting from October 1. Consequently, the wholesale alcohol business came to a standstill.
As a single outlet owner complained, “The government circular and intimation from alcohol brands reached only the big buyers, those that procure liquor in bulk. But small bars like ours, which do not buy in bulk since we do not have storage capacity, were unaware of this and now we are in a quandary.”
A liquor supplier asserted that they had sent a notification to all establishments, regardless of their size, informing them about the need to renew their liquor licenses. They advised restaurants to promptly place their orders, as there would be a disruption in supplies for a minimum of 20 days. This disruption was anticipated because both the supply vendors and the liquor brands were in the process of renewing their registrations with the government.
Navdeep Singh Sethi, the proprietor of Klap and Khi Khi, felt relieved that he had proactively ordered his stocks in advance. This was because the limited brands currently available for ordering did not align with the ones he typically offers at his establishments. He mentioned that despite this challenge, he had prepared a new cocktail menu for his restaurants and assured that the customer experience would remain unaffected.
Numerous bar operators were optimistic that the renewal of licenses and the registration of brands would be finalized in the coming weeks. With October marking the beginning of festive consumption, any delay in the wholesale availability of liquor would have a negative impact on their businesses, particularly affecting small bars. They emphasized that Delhi already faced a disadvantage due to the limited availability of certain globally renowned liquor brands, and such a hiccup would further hinder the prospects of these bars.
Manpreet Singh, who owns Zen restaurant and serves as the treasurer of the National Restaurants’ Association of India, expressed his hope for a transition from the current annual license renewal system to a more streamlined automatic renewal process for existing brands. Another restaurateur added that given the scarcity of many popular brands and high-quality whiskeys and tequilas in the city, the primary desire of businesses was to ensure an uninterrupted supply of their existing brands.
Burma Burma, the Burmese restaurant chain, has ambitious plans to increase its number of outlets to 20 by December 2025. To facilitate this expansion, the Founder of Burma Burma, Ankit Gupta, has revealed that the brand intends to invest INR 40 crore.
Currently, the restaurant chain runs ten outlets and one delivery kitchen across eight different cities.
“We will be opening one outlet each in Mumbai and Bengaluru by February and April, respectively. By December 2024, we will have 14 operational outlets and by December 2025, we will add 6 more,” he elaborated.
The typical Burmese restaurant outlet covers an area of 2,500 sq.ft, and the capital expenditure (CAPEX) required to open one outlet amounts to INR 3.5 crore.
“We will be opening our new outlets in cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru and to aid the expansion plans, we are planning to raise approximately USD5 million in our seed round,” he said.
After being self-funded for its first eight years, the brand secured a pre-seed funding round exceeding USD 2 million in 2022, with Negen Capital taking the lead. Bbigplas Poly Private Ltd, along with other investors, also participated in this funding round.
“We are looking to raise anywhere between 3.5 times our turnover. In the pre-seed round, we diluted roughly around 12 per cent of our equity and in this round, we are looking to dilute a further 12-13 per cent. We will be wrapping up this round by early next year,” he added.
In addition to this, the restaurant chain is also gearing up to venture into the modern trade sector by partnering with Nature’s Basket through Burma Burma Pantry.
“Currently, Burma Burma Pantry, which is a retail unit of the brand, offers 25 SKUs including chips, unique pastes, teas, t-shirts, cups, tea-pots, etc. We offer 12 SKUs under the food category and the rest 13 SKUs come under the non-food category,” he said.
The brand’s products can be found in the restaurant and account for 1.5 percent of the brand’s overall business.
Furthermore, the brand’s food delivery service has experienced a significant increase in demand. During the COVID-19 pandemic, it used to make up 5-6 percent of the total business, but today it constitutes 19-20 percent of the overall business.
“At present, our average order value online is INR 750 and in restaurants, it is INR 1,000,” he stated.
The brand, which achieves a return on investment (ROI) within 18-24 months, concluded the previous fiscal year with INR 56 crore in revenue. It has set a target to reach INR 75 crore in revenue for the current fiscal year.
It is eyeing to become a INR 120 crore brand by the end of FY 24-25.
In the dynamic world of Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), efficient warehousing has emerged as a catalyst for growth and success. With the Indian FMCG industry witnessing unprecedented growth, expected to reach $103.7 billion by 2025, the need for modern warehousing solutions has never been more crucial. This thought leadership article delves into the key modern warehousing trends that are driving the growth of the FMCG sector in India.
FSSAI Regulatory Compliances
Food safety and quality are paramount in the FMCG sector, and adherence to Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) regulations is non-negotiable. This requirement has necessitated a transformation in warehousing infrastructure. FSSAI-compliant warehouses with the appropriate licenses are mandatory for storing FMCG products. Achieving compliance involves substantial infrastructure changes, including temperature-controlled storage, sanitation measures, and adherence to strict hygiene standards. Warehousing providers have had to invest significantly in upgrading their facilities to meet these stringent requirements, ensuring the safe storage of perishable goods.
Inventory Management
The FMCG sector deals with a vast array of products, each with different shelf lives, handling requirements, and packaging. Managing countless Stock Keeping Units (SKUs) and batches while maintaining the First-In-First-Out (FIFO) principle can be a logistical nightmare. Modern warehousing solutions have responded to this challenge with robust Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) that offer customizable features to meet the unique needs of each customer. These systems help optimize inventory management, reducing wastage and ensuring product freshness.
Temperature-Sensitive Environment
Temperature-sensitive goods, including perishable food items and pharmaceuticals, require precise storage conditions. Understanding these requirements and creating the necessary infrastructure is paramount. Modern warehouses now feature specialized temperature-controlled zones to accommodate such products. This investment in temperature-controlled storage not only ensures compliance with industry regulations but also extends the shelf life of products, reducing wastage and enhancing product quality.
Quality Control
Food and pharmaceutical storage in India are heavily regulated by government authorities. Maintaining hygiene and stringent quality control measures in warehouses is not just a best practice; it’s a legal requirement. Modern warehousing providers have responded by implementing rigorous quality control procedures, including regular inspections, pest control, and documentation to ensure compliance. This commitment to quality helps build trust with FMCG companies, ensuring the safety and integrity of their products throughout the supply chain.
Seasonality and Peak Management
One of the major challenges faced by the FMCG sector is the seasonality of demand. To optimize storage during non-peak seasons and efficiently manage inventory spikes during peak seasons, proper planning and backup space solutions are essential. For instance, companies primarily focused on skincare products, experience a surge in inventory holding before winter and a decrease during summer. Tailored warehousing solutions that adapt to these fluctuations are vital to maintaining cost-efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Scalability
Scalability is a key consideration for modern warehousing in the FMCG sector. With the unpredictability of demand peaks, 3PLs (Third-Party Logistics providers) must have a scalable plan in place to accommodate rising storage requirements. This scalability ensures that businesses can meet sudden spikes in demand without compromising on storage space, thus enhancing their agility in the market.
High Distribution Costs
FMCG products often move in bulk, making the cost of transportation a significant challenge. Given the limited profit margins in this sector, controlling distribution costs is crucial for profitability. Modern warehousing solutions often incorporate strategies to reduce distribution costs, such as optimizing transportation routes, implementing Just-In-Time (JIT) inventory practices, and leveraging technology to enhance supply chain visibility.
Modern warehousing trends have become indispensable drivers of growth in the FMCG sector in India. From complying with stringent regulatory requirements to managing inventory efficiently, catering to temperature-sensitive products, ensuring quality control, and addressing seasonality challenges, warehouses have evolved to meet the unique needs of this thriving industry. Scalability and cost control strategies further cement the role of modern warehousing in supporting the growth of FMCG businesses. As the FMCG sector continues to expand, staying ahead of these warehousing trends will be essential for companies looking to thrive in this competitive landscape.
