About the Team

The S&D vertical at Ninjacart is focused on the farm to retailer business of procuring from farmers and delivering to retailers - ensuring that farmers get paid the right price for their efforts and that retailers are able to get market quality produce delivered at their doorsteps. While this value proposition is solid and proven, it needs tweaking depending on the size of the town or the geography we operate it. This is where the Expansion vertical within the S$D team comes in. We
identify the right to win in each town/ city and go on to prove that the value proposition works. Structurally, this is 0 to 1 team, with focus on quick experimentation and playbook building.
