Power2SME is creating India’s No 1 B2B Digital Ecosystem for SMEs which delivers raw material procurement at competitive prices and access to finance at improved rates of interest thus driving higher efficiencies and profitability. Power2SME function as a 'buying club' and helps SMEs benefit from economies of scale as a result of volume purchase and buying power across a large network of manufacturers. Raw material procurement is approximately 70 % of recurring costs of a manufacturing SME, and the unstructured market offers an unlevelled playing field for SME players. Power2SME by disrupting the current inefficiencies of the supply chain eliminates the intermediaries which directly impacts raw material costs and increases business efficiencies for the SMEs.

 SMEs lack access right quality raw material at the right price, easy finance, and credit. Power2SME addresses challenges in raw material procurement, finance, and MRO needs. It aggregates demand from SMEs for most commonly acquired raw materials, procures and sells these at competitive prices. Its platform FinanSME.com connects empaneled lenders with SMEs to provide working capital finance at better terms from banks and NBFCs for purchases on Power2SME. SMEShops.com is an MRO e-marketplace for SMEs. It allows SMEs to buy and sell industrial products online. Power2SME therefore not only helps SMEs to “Make in India” by assisting them in sourcing superior quality raw material at best market price; but also helps them “Sell in India”– thereby making it a complete one-stop shop for SMEs.
