Recently launched Minimart.lk is the only online e-retailer in Sri Lanka catering to all your household grocery needs as well as for the first time in Sri Lanka, offering sizeable discounts on every item including such essentials as milk powder.
“Minimart.lk is all about the discount. We understand just how important savings on grocery items is,” said CEO Yoosuf Hassan.
“We stock everything from grocery items to cosmetics. And we offer significant discounts on every single item we stock, from chilli powder to noodles to cooking oil. Right now, milk powder is probably our fastest selling item,” he added.
Presently Minimart.lk stocks nearly 1,000 products in almost 100 categories, with new products being added every week. Products are sourced from an ever expanding range of reputable brands such as Hemas, Harischandra, Hettigoda, Dilmah, Bogawantalawa, Fonterra, Kelloggs, Siddhalepa, Nature’s Secret and Janet.
Items will be delivered to your home or other specified address, every Wednesday and Sunday, for a miniscule charge of Rs. 50-100.
“We have the lowest delivery charges in the market, ranging from Rs. 50 to Rs. 100, and we have no hidden costs. There is no minimum purchase that has to be made, nor other hidden tricks to deceive customers. We are also working on expanding our delivery service island wide,” Hassan said. Products can be paid for by cash upon delivery, or via Dialog Ez Cash, he added.
Developed using an advanced ecommerce software, Minimart.lk has a simple and user friendly design along with a large search bar.
Minimart.lk is also unique in that it offers live chat support, as well as phone and email support, so you can make your inquiries at absolutely any time you wish.
Furthermore Minimart.lk can be accessed via mobile phone so you can do your grocery shopping while on the go, and even offers reloads.
“Minimart.lk is a registered, government approved organisation, unlike certain other retailers,” emphasised Hassan, the 24-year-old recent graduate behind this ambitious start-up venture. “We are a discount haven, offering the lowest rates on every item. And we are constantly working to better tailor our service to our customers.”
