Daraz, the leading online marketplace in the country, has launched the Humqadam program to lessen the financial duress on small-and-medium enterprises during a period of economic instability caused by the outbreak of the COVID19 pandemic.

With the Humqadam program, Daraz is offering a subsidy of Rs 4.5 crore to small-and-medium businesses and inviting them to establish their online ventures on the platform with the promise that they will not be charged a commission for the months of May and June.

As the restrictions imposed on businesses under lockdown are relaxed and they are permitted to operate online, the Daraz Humqadam program is a ready solution to brick-and-mortar establishments that want to shift towards e-commerce but do not have access to logistics or technological expertise.Under the Daraz Humqadam program, small-and-medium businesses are being offered a subsidy of Rs 4.5 crore and being invited to establish their online ventures on the platform with the promise that they will not be charged commission for the months of May and June.
