E-commerce · Snacks & Confectionery
Our chakli is loved in the family shop and unknown to the rest of the country.
Savouries are bought by the people who grew up eating them. A buyer in Pune looking for Mysuru-style kodubale or one in Delhi who misses Kolkata jhalmuri mix is searching for a particular taste, and they type the name from home. If your listing says only mixture, you are invisible to them.
A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.
In one paragraph
Chips and savouries e-commerce is the online sale of potato chips, banana chips, namkeen, murukku, chakli, mixture and other fried and baked snacks, in packets by weight. GullySales works on getting regional savouries found by people who miss them, on photographing the snack so the buyer sees what is inside, and on getting breakage and crumbs out of your reviews.
A bag of chips is also mostly air and very light, so a courier charge looks large beside it, and the contents get crushed unless the pack is stiff.
Last updated 7 Oct 2026. Product, labelling and advertising rules for snacks & confectionery differ by product and change. We describe them in general terms, so check the current position with your own adviser or the regulator before you publish a claim.
Who it is for
This is written for you if you sell chips & savouries online.
- Regional namkeen and murukku makers who want buyers outside their city
- Banana chips, jackfruit chips and other local chip sellers from the south and the coast
- Brands selling baked, air-popped or millet-based savoury snacks
- Sweet-and-savoury shops selling combo boxes online
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- A brand with one common flavour and no regional name that expects to win on the lowest price per packet
- A maker who cannot protect fragile products in the post
How buyers choose
What decides the sale of chips & savouries.
The regional name
Kara boondi, nippattu, thattai, sev, bhujia, ribbon pakoda. The searcher uses the name from home, in the local language, and expects to see it on the page.
Spice level and flavour
Mild, medium and hot mean different things in different homes. A buyer reads the flavour notes and the ingredient list for chilli and garlic before ordering.
Oil and how it is fried
Which oil, whether it was fried that day, and whether the product is fried, baked or air-popped. Buyers decide on these facts, and claims about them are checked with your adviser.
Weight in the packet
Chips are light, so a two-hundred-gram packet looks large. The buyer wants the net weight and the price per hundred grams, and a photograph of the contents.
Where sales are lost
What usually goes wrong when you sell chips & savouries online.
In the words sellers use on the first call.
“Reviews say the chips arrived as powder”
A crushed packet is a lost order and a public complaint. The pack, the carton and the position of the packet in the carton are where the fix sits.
“People in other cities do not know our snack exists”
A regional snack is searched for by a name that lives in one language. Pages in that language, and in the English transliteration, are how they find you.
“Customers buy one flavour and never try the rest”
Without a sampler pack or a suggestion at checkout, a buyer stays with the first flavour. A trial box shows the range.
The scope
The work we would propose for chips & savouries.
Measured on purchases, conversion rate, cost to win a customer, average order value and repeat purchases. Anything here that needs a platform or tool we have not used with you is confirmed in the audit before it goes in the scope.
- Regional name pagesA page for each snack you sell, with the name in the local script and in English, the story of the dish and how it is made.
- Sampler packs and flavour trial boxA pack of small portions of each snack at a basket value that clears delivery, shown at checkout beside the single flavour.
- Reaching people who miss homeCreators from your region living in other cities, tasting the snack on camera and telling their followers where to order.
- Marketplace listingsTitles, photographs and pack information for Amazon, Flipkart or other marketplaces, written to match what the buyer types.
Transit protection review
Packet, carton and filler checked against how the snack arrives, with photographs of a delivered order to compare with what leaves you.
What we do
What you get for chips & savouries.
Each deliverable and what it is there to change.
A snack name list with scripts
Every product with its name in English and the local language, used in titles, pages and messages.
A flavour and spice guide
A simple scale and description for each snack, so the buyer knows whether it suits a family that does not eat hot food.
A sampler box specification
Which snacks, in what sizes and at what price, designed for first-time buyers outside your home city.
A breakage log and packing standard
A record of damaged orders by product and carrier, and the changes to packing that follow.
How the result is measured
- Purchases
- Conversion rate
- Customer acquisition cost
- Repeat purchase rate
- Return rate
- Damaged-packet complaints
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
First
Free audit call
90 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.
After the call
Written, scored report
Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come with it, in writing.
Before work starts
Baseline recorded
Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.
After the baseline
The first fix goes live
Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.
As agreed
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.
At renewal
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.
What we need from you
What to have ready before the audit call.
None of it has to be tidy. We read what you have.
- Your product list with weights and prices
- Your carton, pouch and filler details
- Orders by city so we see where your buyers already are
- Reviews and complaints about breakage or oil
- Marketplace listings, if you have them
Selling in India and abroad
Selling chips & savouries beyond your own market.
Where you sell decides sizes, units, seasons and returns. We work from Bengaluru and have no overseas office, so for a new country we start from your own sales and the platforms you already use.
Snacks for families overseas
Indians abroad order snacks from home for their own cupboards and as gifts. Units, weights in grams and ounces, and the shelf life on the pack all matter.
Fried food and import rules
Countries differ on what food they allow, how it is labelled and how much oil, nuts or spice must be declared. Your adviser confirms the rules for each destination, and you begin with markets you already sell to.
