Submit brand profile, product catalog, and certifications. Share details about market presence, manufacturing capacity, and category fit.

Commercial Negotiation & Contracting

Discussion of trade margins, payment terms, delivery schedules. Finalisation of onboarding agreement, NDAs, and SLAs.

System Integration

Vendor creation in D-Mart's ERP/procurement system. Article code generation, barcode sharing, pack image uploads, and vendor portal access where applicable.

Operational Onboarding

Training on order cycles, supply schedules, dispatch process, invoicing format, GRN process, and returns policy.

Understanding margins

How D-Mart Commission Works

Category-Based Margins

Unlike marketplaces with fixed commission slabs, D-Mart determines commission and trade margins based on product category, brand strength, and commercial negotiations.

Contracting Stage Terms

There is no fixed published rate — terms are agreed during the contracting stage of onboarding. IARDO supports you through these negotiations to secure favourable margins.

Payment Cycle Negotiation

IARDO helps you negotiate payment cycles, supply terms, and distribution conditions to ensure your business remains profitable while meeting D-Mart's pricing expectations.

Volume-Based Growth

As your supply relationship grows, IARDO advises on improving vendor performance metrics and increasing order volumes to build a long-term supply partnership with D-Mart.
