With this, the brand’s stores across 140 urban communities came online. Clients put orders by means of the site from their closest store constantly faculty conveyed them.


The enormous market is currently attempting to change over traffic from its site into actual footfalls. The brand has chosen to bring its leader deal occasion ‘Sabse Saste’ on the web so expanding the general deal time frame by a day. Sabse Saste 5 Din is currently Sabse Saste 6 Din.

Considering the way that the yearly occasion spikes every day footfalls by anyplace between five to multiple times, Big Bazaar is out to guarantee that the numbers stay good regardless of the COVID shadow. Well-being measures have been increased as well.
