MallStreet was conceived a year ago in the backdrop of diminishing footfall in brick & mortar stores in Bengaluru and across the country. The objective was to drive virtual footfall to stores through ‘Live Video Commerce’. The idea is predicated on research findings - that consumers like the social experience of physical shopping. However, the bottlenecks arising out of traffic, lack of parking spaces & diminishing availability of disposable time, discourage them from making a trip to a high street or a mall.
Using MallStreet, to video interact with a favourite store and make a purchase, provides the shopper, the much-needed social interaction, along with the convenience of doing it from his/her home. The arrival of the pandemic gave additional impetus to this need as, ‘contactlessness’ or reduced contact interaction became an additional requirement.
MallStreet offers the shopper the best-of-both-worlds, social interaction with the contactless-ness, while shopping.
