Taikee, the B2B e-commerce platform of Peel-Works that digitally empowers small and mid-sized grocery stores has launched its new brand film #UncleKiDukaan. The film is a portrayal of how neighbourhood kirana stores are not just shops, but an irreplaceable bond for its many consumers. One that conjures up happy memories and emotions shaped up over the years, which are hard to be filled in by online alternatives.

This film is also a reminder of how local shopkeepers are the lifeline of consumers across the nation. Especially, in times of COVID, when cities are locked down, the shutters of these corner stores remain open to serve consumers tirelessly.

In the film, the script brings out the deep relationship of the corner store owner with his consumers, quite like the unspoken bond of a father and child. It narrates how ‘Uncle ki Dukaan’ has always stood by their side and passed on a legacy of love, reliability and care throughout generations. The film evokes nostalgia as it represents how most childhoods were filled with memories of interaction with their local shopkeeper. And, how even during the recent lockdown, he never let them down.
