Our impact
What the marketplace has actually moved
One rule governs this page: no number appears here that we cannot count or cite. The figures below are counted from the catalogue in this build; the monthly series is sample data and is labelled as such.
Please read this before quoting any figure on this page
This is a demonstration build, not a live marketplace. The counts of groups, women, villages, states, products and reviews are computed from the sample catalogue that ships with the code. The monthly orders-and-payout series further down is sample data written for this demo: a live deployment would read it from its own order database and reconcile it against the fortnightly settlement statements. Nothing here should be cited as a trading record.

Quality commitments
The standards every group is held to
Not an aspiration list. These are the checks applied before a product is listed and again on the field visit.
No preservatives in food
Pickles are cured with oil and salt, not vinegar and stabilisers. Bakery is dispatched within a week of baking.
Azo-free dyes in textiles
Reactive and natural dyes only, printed and dried in shade so the colour bonds to the fibre instead of sitting on it.
Cure times are respected
Six weeks for cold-process soap, four weeks for pickle, three weeks for lemon. Shortening these is how a handmade product is made to look handmade.
Batch-tested where it matters
Honey, ghee and spices are tested for adulteration before packing, and the report is available on request.
Behind every figure is a named group
Each group has its own page with its village, its district, its craft and the price it set for its own products. The numbers only mean something once you can read those.
