It is something which people do to fulfill their household needs. Hence, came the concept of online grocery. Many local, as well as international players, came up with their websites and apps.Even though grocery items constitute daily need items, still the online grocery stores are lagging behind as compared to other e-commerce businesses. Many online grocery stores did show tremendous growth in their start-up years, but with time, these stores failed to achieve set goals and started showing losses. Many big names like Grofers, e-grocers, Peppertap, etc.  are either shutting down their businesses in various cities or planning to quits in 2019.

         <title>Online grocery retailing is very competitive. Hence, many online grocery startups start focussing on expanding their services to various cities. However, these horizontal expansions create various problems for online grocery startups like exhausting their VC money, etc. As a result in many cases, online grocery startups end up withdrawing services with time. Sustaining competition and running a business in various cities are some other major Challenges faced by Online Grocery Store.Housewives are less tech-savvy: Sometimes the solution itself becomes a problem. Shopping grocery online aim at saving people’s time and effort of going to market and shop for their daily needs items. Well, most of the grocery shopping is done by housewives. Not all the housewives are tech savvy. For many housewives, apps and online grocery shopping is an alien concept.Moreover, browsing through various sites and comparing prices doesn’t excite them. They prefer going to the market and do their shopping. Moreover, many housewives prefer bargaining over comparing prices on the internet. Among various Challenges faced by Online Grocery Store, attracting these housewives is the main issue.Availability of preferable grocery item at the time of needlogistics and managing stocks for such a wide variety of grocery goods are other major Challenges faced by Online Grocery Store. Online retail grocery stores act as one large supermarket where the buyer can find numerous brands for one single grocery item. Most of the people are quite particular about their brand preference as far as their daily need items are concerned. Hence, when buyers fail to find their preferred brand or the grocery item they are looking for runs out of stock, it’s their local market which comes to their rescue.Inability to master inventory managementSome of the online grocery startups follow the inventory-led business model. Under this model, the companies maintain their own inventories. This does provide them with various benefits as the company has complete control over managing stocks as well as its movement. However, the major drawback in managing a warehouse is its rental cost. The company needs to have a good financial backup to deal with the cost associated with warehouses and cold storages.InfrastructureInfrastructure is another important factor on the list of Challenges faced by Online Grocery Store. Different online retail startups adopt different business models. Some online retail shops have tie-ups with local grocery retailers, and some have their own stores to take care of the grocery needs of their customers. Companies with their own stores need to have a huge capital. Expenditures like the rent of shops, maintenance of shops, cost incurred for transportation and other logistic related costs, together consume a major part of the revenue earned. Hence in many cases failure to manage infrastructure turns out to be the major reason behind why grocery stores fail.CompetitionOnline grocery market is highly competition driven. Among all the Challenges faced by Online Grocery Store, preventing customers from switching to the competitor’s website is the most crucial challenge.  With so many options available on the internet customer enjoys the benefits of browsing through various websites and select the product from a website which gives maximum benefits. Hence, staying ahead of the competition is very important for any online grocery startups. Online grocery stores need to keep a close watch on their competitor’s each and every move.Another issue faced by online grocery stores is that they face the competition from both other online retailers as well as the retailers of local grocery shops. After all, a vegetable and fruit hawker also give door to door delivery. Surviving in such a competitive market is not an easy task. One has to keep on working on new and innovative ideas to attract new customers and retain their existing customers.</title>
