JioMart is an Indian e-commerce company, headquartered in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, that started as a joint venture between Reliance Retail and Jio Platforms. The company initially focused on online groceries sales before expanding into other product categories such as fashion, home essentials, and lifestyle products.[5][6][7]
The platform was soft-launched in December 2019. A pilot was initially launched in select areas of Navi Mumbai, Thane and Kalyan in April 2020.[8][9] In May 2020, JioMart was fully launched in 200 cities and towns across India.[10][11][12] Within only a few days of its launch, the JioMart app surpassed one million downloads.[13]
In October 2020, JioMart signed an agreement with Infibeam Avenues. Under this deal, Jio will use Infibeam's solutions to power its e-commerce and digital payments services.[14]
