Bijak Looking for Office Manager at Gurugram, Haryana, India Full Time

About the Company

Bijak is India’s No.1 Agritrading app and a pioneer in the field of agritech. Founded in April 2019, Bijak has been scaling up exponentially by creating user-friendly digital solutions for Indian agri traders. Today, our app is used in 1000 regions in 27 Indian states and UTs, and has over 50,000 registered users. The platform oversees trade in 100+ commodities every day and now sees an annualized GMV of Rs 4000 crores.

The Indian agricultural sector is estimated to be worth $300 Bn and generates employment for over 40% of the Indian population. However, the processes and agri trading practices in this sector have remained unchanged for decades. Over the past few years, we have designed digital solutions that help agri traders tackle challenges at key points in their trading journey.

Bijak users are majorly composed of B2B traders who control 80% of this $300 Bn agri value chain. They have limited access to technology, information, and credit. Bijak helps these users – buyers, suppliers, MSMEs, corporate buyers – discover verified counterparties and trade with minimal friction by accessing Bijak’s layer of trust and reliability.

Our success lies in understanding our users and creating solutions that mirror their trading process, while solving major pain points along the way. Be it lack of transparency, inadequate access to working capital, reliable counterparty discovery or logistics, there is a Bijak feature that addresses it.
