The van would carry samples of building materials right to the doorstep of home building professionals such as architects, interior decorators, builders without having to hop from one shop to another. The van would carry a wide range of samples from across 75+ brands.  

Currently, their services will be available in Delhi NCR Region and will focus on core categories like boards & laminates, electricals & lights, sanitary & plumbing, hardware & plywood

India's Home Interior Segment is $25 Bn

The home interior segment in India is USD 25 billion employing over five million professionals. However, the market continues to be extremely fragmented with problems like price opacity, counterfeit products, poor customer service and ad-hoc professional fees.

“In line with our promise of simplifying building material purchases, we have launched this concept of sampling van to make it easier for professionals to check and suggest products for their ongoing projects in and around the Delhi NCR region. In this phase the van will focus on core categories like boards & laminates, electricals & lights, sanitary & plumbing, hardware & plywood and will keep extending its categories,” said Mistry.Store’s co-founder Vaibhav Poddar.
