Gujarat State Handloom and Handicraft Development Corporation (GSHHDC) will soon launch its own e-commerce portal under 'Garvi-Gurjari' brand to reach out to a bigger customer base and boost sales in overseas markets. GSHHDC, a Gujarat government undertaking which owns 'Garvi-Gurjari' stores across the country, has also signed an MoU with global e-commerce giant eBay and plans to tie-up with domestic e-commerce majors as Flipkart and Snapdeal, a senior GSHHDC official said.
"Under the brand 'Garvi-Gurjari', we are going to create our own website so that products can be sold through online platform. We are expecting to launch it by end of April," GSHHDC Head (Marketing and IT), B Venkateswarlu, told PTI here.
