How Small Businesses in Tamil Nadu Are Going Online with OrkaStores

Introduction

Tamil Nadu is known for its rich tradition in textiles, food, handicrafts, and small-scale industries. But now, there's a new wave of business growth — going digital. More and more small business owners from cities like Coimbatore, Chennai, Madurai, Tiruppur, and Salem are starting online stores to reach customers across India and even the globe.

And helping them do that — is OrkaStores.

Why Go Online?

Customers are shopping online more than ever before. Whether it’s buying snacks from a home-based kitchen in Madurai or handcrafted jewelry from Coimbatore, people want to shop from their phones. If your business isn't online, you're missing out on:

  1. 24x7 visibility
  2. Direct-to-customer sales
  3. No middlemen
  4. Reach outside your local area

Challenges Faced by TN Businesses

Small business owners often face these hurdles:

  1. Lack of technical knowledge
  2. High cost of hiring developers
  3. Confusion over payment gateways and delivery options
  4. Language barriers (especially English-focused platforms)

Success Story: TharikaGallery – Coimbatore

TharikaGallery, a handmade jewelry and lifestyle brand based in Coimbatore, is one of the shining examples of Tamil Nadu’s digital success stories.

Before using OrkaStores, TharikaGallery mainly sold through Instagram DMs and local exhibitions. Managing orders, tracking payments, and keeping up with customers took a lot of manual work.

After switching to OrkaStores:

  1. They launched a stylish website in just one day
  2. Enabled secure online payments with ease
  3. Started receiving orders from across India
  4. Gained better brand visibility through SEO and Google Search
“Having our own website helped us build trust. Customers love browsing our collections, and we spend less time managing orders. OrkaStores made everything simple.”
Tharika, Founder of TharikaGallery
