The problem Craftizen(Rural Arts) solves

Vision
The artisans of rural areas often cannot identify potential new markets for their products. While consumers of handmade products are increasing, crafts continue to be sold through local markets. The rural artisans have difficulty in reaching out to the urban customers through retail platforms. So, Rural Arts helps create a linkage between such rural artisans and new customers through an online market platform.

How does it help?
• The application helps in promoting the art and craftwork of Rural people which will help them economically.
• The mission of improving the livelihood of rural artisans by helping them to understand the market potential of their goods can be achieved.
• It will promote the use of Indian goods among people. Hence the mission of "Atma Nirbhar Bharat can be achieved.

What it does
• People from every region of our country can access the application. They can view, purchase any product they want.
• Provide marketing channels to the best artisans of India to reach urban customers.
• Market place for a variety of handmade products.
• Get access to a variety of Indian Handmade products made by talented rural artisans from different parts of the country online. As the demand for handmade products is increasing and there are now easier ways to find trustworthy handmade products online, we help create an online market for all such customers.
• Preserve the rich heritage and art culture of our country. Rural artisans are the main pillars of Indian art and culture, yet they earn very little due to the lack of a relevant platform that can help realize the worth of their art. We aim at encouraging the rural artisans to sell more of their products.
• Connect rural artisans with the urban customers whom they might not be able to reach out otherwise. Due to lack of education, a lot of talented rural artisans are unable to connect with urban customers. We act as a bridge between the rural artisans and urban customers.
