Recently, I got to read an awesome post about Amazon’s soft entry into India’s booming e-commerce space, little known e-commerce portal ‘Junglee’. The post itself describes beautifully, how being a gatekeeper toIndia’s e-commerce space would be the best Amazon could do, instead of burdening itself with logistics hassles. Great point taken!
Let’s read first what Junglee is all about and why we shouldn’t be mistaking it with other popular e-commerce portals inIndia, in particular to my favorites Flipkart and Snapdeal. Junglee is product discovery service available from Amazon, the world’s leading e-commerce portal. It’s neither Flipkart nor Snapdeal or anything else.
So for what exactly one should be using Junglee for? As mentioned earlier, Junglee is basically a e-commerce product discovery service, which helps to discover products with variations from various sellers & re-sellers including Amazon.com. At present Junglee claims to partner with more than 100 sellers not necessarily from online space, along with Amazon.com, offering more than 1.2 Cr products to shop. Wow! That’s something amazing and quite different!
So if you want to buy something online, who else could offer you so much variety with best deals other than Junglee? I guess no one, at present. The other post, which I would like to recommend you to read, is about how Junglee outweighs other shopping portals like flipkart & even google, when it comes to online shopping benefits. Can we call Junglee Google of E-Commerce in India then?
Junglee fits perfectly into need of smoothly navigating through India’s growing e-commerce jungle. Why stick only to one or two sellers all the time to discover the product best deals, when e-commerce gateway service like Junglee offers widest range of product discovery from more than 100 online & offline sellers? And who knows, someday, Amazon might move from being just a gateway to actual seller. It’s just the perfect way to understand the Indian e-commerce segment without even building physical presence of stocks.
