JioMart is Reliance’s take on Amazon, Flipkart, and other e-retail channels in the country. Reliance announced JioMart a few months ago, soon after it unveiled its deal with Facebook. After testing the e-commerce retail platform for months now Reliance has finally released JioMart app for Android as well as iPhone users. The JioMart app is now available on Google Playstore and Apple Appstore.
Till now the JioMart website (jiomart.com) was being tested and consumers across 200+ cities were able to place orders and pay online. The JioMart app will make it easy for consumers to place orders. With the platform, Reliance Jio is looking to take on the likes of other e-commerce platforms available in the country.
At RIL Annual General Meet 2020 earlier this week Mukesh D. Ambani announced future developments for JioMart and what the company is aiming for in the months to come. Ambani declared that Reliance’s JioMart and Facebook’s WhatsApp will work towards making more and more growth opportunities for small merchants in the country.

Currently, JioMart only sells grocery and food items. Ambani, however, has confirmed that JioMart will soon expand to include electronics, fashion, pharmaceutical, and healthcare categories. At the AGM Isha Ambani said, “With JioMart, Kirana stores will no longer be held back by limited product range, space, or delivery challenges. The partnership with JioMart can potentially help Kirana stores grow business and earnings. JioMart is built to digitally enable, empower, and engage Kirana stores. Kirana's will stay connected and transact with their customers on the JioMart platform, facilitated by a multifunctional POS.” “We have successfully piloted this Kirana transformation and those who have opted for this have been positively surprised,” she added.
