To weave a piece of fabric or saree, the main ingredient weavers need is yarn. Easy access to yarns that suit weavers’ needs is a crucial aspect, as it determines the pace of production. Apart from easy access, the supply of raw materials at the right time is crucial. For a reeler/spinner who manufactures yarns, clearing his inventory, i.e., selling his produce at a competitive price within a reasonable time frame, to recover manufacturing costs matters the most. So, why not create a platform that meets both the demand and supply for yarns?
ReshaMandi’s Yarn Marketplace for spinners and weavers
Cotton yarn marketplace is a platform on the ReshaMandi super app that brings spinners and weavers across the country together to put an end to the problems related to raw material procurement. In an era where purchase of food and merchandise happens at the click of a button, it is not surprising to buy and sell yarn at the click of a button from the convenience of mobile phones.
By digitising the natural fibre supply chain, ReshaMandi has created a Yarn Marketplace that serves as a reverse auction platform, enabling weavers to put forth their requirements and spinners across India can place bids as per the demand.
Apart from providing multiple supply options for weavers, this will also help them choose the best value offering suitable for their business needs.
Upon downloading the ReshaMandi app, one can get access to the digital marketplace. Weavers, fabric manufacturers can share their yarn requirements and the desired price points. Spinners or weaving mill owners can view these requirements and place their bids accordingly.

There is a participation requests page to manage interests by customers and suppliers to participate in the marketplace, and an auctions page to manage auctions and bids.
