Description:
To be launched in January 2010, The5PercentShop aims to become India's leading comparison based social shopping portal, the one-stop destination for all shoppers, merchants and market enthusiasts.
To begin with, The5PercentShop sells directly as well as initiates selling. With the sudden upsurge of brands and stores, both online and offline, that claim to sell the best of the products at the most reasonable prices the shopper goes crazy. What is the assurance that the price offered to him is the best? Normally before making a buying decision of an expensive product the consumer does an in depth research on the product from various websites which is an extremely tedious task. He would often wish a single website that would meet all his buying needs. To fulfiling this motive is coming (URL removed) in January 2010.
Starting as a brainchild of two people, The5PercentShop plans to scale to 500 stores within a year, and over 2000 stores within the first two years. Thus for The5PercentShop we are not specifically looking for people who have all the knowledge ,but we are also looking for people who have the 'it' factor. We are looking for people who are full of life, are willing to learn and most importantly are willing to work as a team.
