Daraz Nandini-ActionAid arrange “Online GorurHaat”

DHAKA: The largest e-commerce platform of the country Daraz has organized “Online GorurHaat” campaign on the occasion of Eid ul Azha for the second time. 

The specialty of this online GorurHaat is that every cow here is 100% organic and all the cows have been specially raised by the women entrepreneurs of Sundarganj in Gaibandha, said a press release.

This project has been exclusively launched by Daraz Nandini in association with ActionAid and the cows are being brought to Dhaka from the remote areas of Gaibandha. 

Customers can easily find detailed information regarding the sacrificial cows by watching videos before ordering from the app. 

The price of the 87 sacrificial cows found on the app ranges from 42,080 BDT to the highest being worth 1,59,500 BDT. Along with the reasonable price, buyers can avail discount vouchers and extra discount on pre-payment by specific bank cards.   

Under the supervision of ActionAid, as part of their “MMWW” project, these local and cross-breed cows have been reared in a completely natural way by the female entrepreneurs of Sundarganj in Gaibandha. 

No forms of harmful hormones or steroids have been used in the food provided to the cows. The food provided is completely organic and homemade which includes grass, straws, cow feed etc. The last date of order is 5th August and the delivery will start from August 9.

On this occasion, Md. Khairuzzaman, Deputy Manager of Market Development of Action Aid, says “The cows are reared by capable women entrepreneurs and the close supervision of project staff to comply with safe food regulations. As per our records, farmers have not used any harmful ingredients to rear the cows”. 

On the other hand, Shayantani Twisha the Project Lead of Nandini says “One of the primary objectives of the Nandini project is to source products and livestock from women entrepreneurs and delivers them to the customers of the whole country. To keep this objective in mind, ‘Online GorurHaat’ campaign has been organized this year. Even though this time only the Dhaka city dwellers will be benefited from this campaign, depending on the success, we would like to extend this facility nationwide”.
