Discovery Box: a curated monthly box of local finds 🎁

Real samples from local makers, curated into one box so you can try before you commit to full-size. We start in Pune (Edition 01), then grow city by city.

Built by six T.Y. B.Com students who were tired of local makers staying invisible, and shoppers defaulting to the same big brands.

🔀 Two sides of the same gap

Cities make excellent things. Finding them, and getting them into new hands, is still harder than it should be. Edition 01 starts in Pune. The same model scales city by city.

🛍️ Consumers

Hard to find good local brands

  • Most people keep buying the same big brands they already know.
  • Small local brands rarely show up on Instagram feeds or major e-commerce.
  • Trying something new usually means buying a full-size pack blind.
  • Personal, local gifting options are limited.

🏪 Local brands

Hard to reach new customers

  • Low awareness outside their immediate circle.
  • Limited marketing budgets and high acquisition costs.
  • Heavy dependence on Instagram and WhatsApp alone.
  • Difficulty getting products into new hands for trial.

🗺️ How Discovery Box works

A simple two-sided loop. Brands get trial. You get discovery.
