The digital marketing programme using the Bandhu app intends to help the different SHGs as producers, to understand the market, eliminate middlemen, get the right price for the right product, improve negotiating skills and maintain high product standards. Technical support for the SHGs will ensure marketing and payment processes.

After the introduction of the digital marketing programme, Don Bosco institutions in the above-mentioned 11 districts will identify the SHGs to be associated and help with product selection based on the criteria of availability of raw materials and products with wide bandwidth. Initially, 25 SHG members will be selected in each district as part of the programme.
