Quikr Launches its First QuikrBazaar Experience Zone in Telangana
Houses Quikr Assured products such as Furniture, Electronics, and Appliances
Nizamabad, February 11th, 2019: Quikr, the platform behind leading transaction marketplaces built ontop of India’s largest classifieds business, today launched its first QuikrBazaar Experience zone in Nizamabad. The stores are present across various cities owing to greater demands seen on the platform. The first two stores are already open for business in Belgaum and Mysore in Karnataka. By March 2019, Quikr plans to have 10 such touch-and-feel experience zones across India to provide increased accessibility for its consumers.
QuikrBazaar’s Assured products brings its various transactional models including Furniture, Electronics, and Appliances in these Experience Zones. All products in the Assured offering are checked for quality and come with a full warranty and replacement guarantee from Quikr. They are convenient while also easy on the pocket.
Talking about the development, Sarath Chandra Gudlavalleti, VP QuikrBazaar said, “There is a huge demand for quality tested new, Unboxed & refurbished products across India and some customers still prefer to ‘touch & feel’ the product before buying. With the launch of these QuikrBazaar Experience Zones, we will be able to reach markets where customers don’t have access to these products and bridge the gap between aspirations & affordability in Tier I, II & III cities of India.”
It is interesting to note that buying and selling pre-owned products helps save the environment as well. A recent survey by QuikrBazaar says that 31% of consumers are aware of the environment-friendliness factor that comes with buying such products. In addition to this factor, of course, QuikrBazaar sees many consumers leaning towards pre-owned goods because of better pricing, shortening purchase cycles, easy availability, and the transactional experience offered by Quikr. These offline Experience Zones will help in spreading awareness and encouraging the concept of re-using pre-owned goods in India.
Currently, the QuikrBazaar Experience Zone in Nizamabad is located at Kotagally, behind Usha Prasad Multiplex. With Telugu actress Reshmi Gautam gracing the grand opening of QuikrBazaar Experience Zone, the event garnered much attention and was received well by the city localities.
