This is a special edition of mojoStores compilation where we handpicked Instamojo online stores that are run by passionate entrepreneurs who are determined to ensure India’s rich heritage thrives.<\/p>\n

They also serve as a valuable source of income and livelihood for artisans from rural India. All the products are crafted in villages and are exported nationally, and sometimes even internationally.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the power of eCommerce platforms, all this has become possible. On this Independence Day, we want to make a contribution and support the freedom to live a better life.<\/p>\n

At Instamojo, our team is dedicated to providing a platform for economically vulnerable groups and marginalized communities to showcase their incredible creations. By purchasing from these stores, you can help build a stronger India.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

MojoStores #1: Malti Agaravarthi <\/strong><\/h2>\n

This online store sells incense sticks that have been made by a community of rural artisans. This entire business is a homage to\u00a0 Malti Agaravathi, a strong and empowered woman who invoked the motions of service in her sons. Her love for incense sticks and their different aromas helped her sons build the online business into what it is today.<\/p>\n
