Sales of Rs 2 crores was recorded from the 'Karuthal' campaign which was launched by Kudumbashree to support the Kudumbashree entrepreneurs and Joint Liability Groups (JLG) who were in crisis due to the spread of covid-19 pandemic.
Kudumbashree started the Karuthal Campaign from 2020-21 financial year onwards to encourage entrepreneurs and JLG members (farming group members), to rejuvenate the enterprises that had faced issues and to arrange more marketing opportunities. In short, the activity of taking the products of entrepreneurs and JLGs in the form of kits is called 'Karuthal Campaign'.
The 'Karuthal Campaign' of 2021-22 financial year which was started during last November is also getting completed now. The campaign was not conducted at Pathanamthitta, Wayanad and Kannur districts. Kudumbashree was able to make a sales of Rs 2,20,59,650 from the rest of the districts, through this campaign, until now. 65,354 kits were also distributed. The activities as part of the campaign is progressing in some areas.
The District Missions collect the price list of the products from the entrepreneurs in their respective districts. This information is then passed to the CDSs. The CDSs would enquire about the number of kits each NHGs would need and prepare a requirement list and hand it over to the District Mission. Based on this requirement, District Missions collect the products from entrepreneurs, arrange them in kits and bring the same to the CDSs. Whereas, the vegetable kits for distribution ard prepared by the CDSs themselves.
The CDSs deliver these kits to the NHGs as per the requirement. Each NHG would pay the amount of the total kits they bought, from their internal savings to the CDSs. Whereas, the NHG members would pay the amount of the kits at NHGs within a maximum of 20 installments.
