I see a pragmatic Guy here.... Let me help answer the Questions:--- 1) Reliance (or any organized retailer): - will provide (as in the other 35 cities in which they are operational) at a price which is close to the whole sellers in the mandi... 2) Products will be farm Fresh (as of nutritive content is not tested) 3) Once Material falls below a specified quality it is called DUMP, and not sold. 4) Material is bought from Farmers at Specially designed collection centres,where farmers come at FREE-WILL... because they get:-BETTER PRICE, MORE CONVENIENCE, CASH PAYMENTS. & ARE NOT EXPLOITED BY MIDDLEMEN.... 5) YES IT IS BUSINESS FOR PROFIT... HOWEVER THE PROFIT IS A PERCENTAGE SAVED SAVINGS GENERATED FROM:- REDUCED NON-VALUE ADDING INTERMEDIARIES / REDUCED PRODUCE WASTAGE (these co put up cold chains), & BETTER CONSUMER PATRONAGE BY ORGANIZED MESS FREE AMBIENCE AND WIDER ASSORTMENT OF PRODUCTS...
