Please welcome Yesgrid.com- My new sponsor

Hello and welcome!

Today we have an exciting post on the house- Please welcome Debjit Nandy of Yesgrid.com who has kindly offered to be Trumatter’s sponsor for all things stationery and have allowed me to spread a word!

A fantastic website that you stationery connoisseurs and accessory addicts will lap up, fast and easy, Yesgrid.com is India’s first and largest, dedicated online stationery shop- yeah you’ll just need to type Yesgrid and you’ll be redirected to a one stop shop that takes care of all your stationery needs! Who wanted this to happen real, bad? I did. I’ve seen people in forums do. I know you have done.

In this world, where we hardly get time to do essentials, and those of us who stay away from the main city, it is criminal to waste 5 hours of travelling time (unless you really want to) to buy stationery. Worst case scenario: the trouble is often not worth it for most stationery shops, when you need a thing the most, is out of stock. Imagine the disappointment? Yesgrid.com puts a stopper to pretty much all the stationery angst that we all have been through! What do you say then working mom of 3 and busy homemakers?

Best part is they also cater with accessories, educational books, classroom furniture, all kinds of supplies and e-peripherals. A great effort put to action, there is nothing as comfortable as to get your supplies within the comforts of your home, packed and delivered. No need to make a list and save it for month beginnings, there is no need to curse yourself for forgetting to buy washi tapes, there is no reason to reluctantly slip on your shoes and walk the stationery aisles on Sunday morning. Grab a coffee and get all you need under one roof!

A little on what’s in store for us!

Catering with 4 broad sections- stationery, accessory, education and e-peripherals, Yesgrid houses a premium range of Pens, Journals and Leather Folders/Files, office stationery, office desksets, classroom essentials, classroom furniture, folders and even bags. If you specially share a love for pens, you’ll find Yesgrid really handy- from liners and ball point to gel inks and nib pens; from a price range of INR 45 to a good stretch of INR 85,000. Know what ‘am sayin’? You’ll have an array of options open infront of you with brands like Sheaffers, Waterman, Fisher and likes!

Next best- a dedicated section for artists, replete with colors and stationery, and yes they stock STAEDTLER ( writing, colouring, drawing instruments and modelling/polymer clays.) My artist friends, if you are reading this, don’t forget to thank me! Yes, mom, you too!

Am I getting a bit carried away? Well, don’t blame me. This store kind of makes you go woozy! And before I go any further with my very own word-monstrosity, I’ll make way for Debjit Nandy from Yesgrid.com.

How did the idea for your store come about?
A market in India which is slated to grow at 30% CAGR, hitting 15 billion USD by 2015 , complemented with the thought of being able to touch, impact and serve millions of Indians , was too big an opportunity to ignore.Our founding team started looking out for areas and we discovered “stationery and office needs” as a category is not being well served via online medium. A simple search on stationery in India was not pointing us to a ‘one-stop-shop’ site.
