An Indian start-up which is based out of Hyderabad, called the Linq Store, has worked wonders in what they do.
Their simplistic concept of being an official offline subsidiary of giant e-commerce and retail industries has created sparks in the franchise sector. The primary key to their rapid rise and success is their association with every store owner and the guidance that they provide to them through their operations for every store.
With their idea of very minimal investment and almost zero inventory, this startup has exposed the low tiered regions of India to a modern digital scenario with their franchised stores. It’s a model that has turned many ordinary people into entrepreneurs of today.
The stereotype thought that only a metropolitan city could give you a good job and career growth is changing. All credits to the LinQ Store that has given this country 500+ entrepreneurs today.
The success stories of a few such are listed below:
