Snapdeal has developed a unique set of competencies to serve value-conscious customers across Bharat – our power brands, a predictable price-quality proposition, multi-lingual interfaces are all designed to serve this need.  Consumer expectations from physical, digital, and hybrid business models reflect their preferences to be served in a flexible and engaging manner. I am excited about learning how expectations of buyers will move the needle of “what’s next” in the way we shop today and build strategies to adapt to  the changing landscape and business models to match their needs.
