NowPurchase is currently focused on the $19B foundry and castings industry. The metal industry forms the backbone of the economy and the fundamental block of the physical world - be it transportation, construction and every machinery.

We are building a rich, digital marketplace where Metal Manufacturers can procure high quality raw materials in a trusted manner. At the same time we are building the OS (Operating System) that will supercharge their productivity and processes to ultimately make procurement autonomous.

We provide foundries with:
1. Smart: Proprietary software to optimize production process
2. Reliable: Complete ownership as a supplier. Reliable & strict quality check and inspection.
3. Transparent: Real time stock and price availability through our WhatsApp Bot.
We deal with all core production inputs like Ferro Alloys, Additives, Nodularizers, Scrap & Pig Iron among others.

We are backed by Orios Venture Partners, InfoEdge Ventures, and the Nipha Group.

We are a compelling, creative, and mission-driven organization that believes in having fun while building something bigger than itself.

India - Kolkata, West Bengal,

NowPurchase is transforming the 140B$ Metal Manufacturing industry. Our goal is to be the preferred procurement partner for over 10k metal manufacturers across the country by 2027.

Strong believer that technology could create efficiencies & empower businesses & individuals. Last decade has seen huge amount of innovation on the consumer side with companies like Swiggy, Flipkart, MakeMyTrip & so on. Businesses still do not have the right tools & access which could make them more efficient & successful.

My goal is to build an enduring company where people enjoy great amount of autonomy, work life balance & growth. We are a team of ~50 people and hiring across roles.
