IIM plans Flipkart, Amazon virtual grocery stores in Kolkata
Students from the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Calcutta have proposed a plan to launch virtual grocery stores at Kolkata metro stations by partnering with e-commerce majors like Flipkart or Amazon. The idea involves installing wall-length billboards displaying product images along with a QR code. Passengers can then scan the code to order daily-use products like groceries.
