Hyderabad: Hesa said it will onboard over 1.5 lakh microlevel entrepreneurs by the end of 2022. The rural-tech startup will empower entrepreneurs across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka and plans to expand into five additional States.
Expanding its network of microlevel entrepreneurs (Hesaathi), the startup focuses on offering a range of products and services to solve the challenges of accessibility, availability and buying and selling in remote rural locations.
Identifying the right talent on the ground, the field officer onboards Hesaathi who are then trained to use the platform. After the completion of the training, Hesaathis are awarded with a certificate and then roll on the platform.
Established in 2020, the Hyderabad startup today enables over 30,000 microlevel entrepreneurs (Hesaathi), allowing them to earn Rs 8,000 to Rs 12,000 income monthly.
Hesaathis onboarded at Hesa will be in charge of the supply chain at a local level, facilitating village level mapping, surveys, campaigns, and promotions for the company’s brand partners. Hesaathis also help rural consumers with everyday transactions on the platform like utility bill payments, buying and selling of products across sectors and more.
Hesa founder & CEO, Vamsi Udayagiri said, “As a technology enabled platform, we are empowering livelihood in rural areas, providing access to quality products and services. Our endeavour is to bridge the gap between rural and urban India by leveraging technology and the workforce.”
