About LocalHaat
The Digital Backbone for Rural Commerce & Inter-Village Logistics
Local Commerce. Local Logistics. Connected Villages.
Built for Rural India. Built Around Local Networks.
LocalHaat is building a digital commerce and logistics network for rural India, connecting customers, businesses, logistics partners, travelling partners and village agents through one platform.
Our goal is to make everyday products and parcel movement more accessible across villages and small towns by connecting local commerce and existing transport networks with digital technology.
LocalHaat is designed to grow from rural commerce and existing logistics infrastructure toward new delivery methods, including small-parcel drone delivery in Phase 2.

Drone Delivery — Phase 2
“Start small. Deliver what matters.”
Phase 1 focuses on building the LocalHaat commerce and logistics network using existing transport partners, travelling partners and village agents.
Phase 2 introduces drone delivery for eligible small parcels. Initial drone delivery will focus on parcels weighing 1–2 KG per parcel, with an initial focus around 1 KG.
Drone eligibility will depend on product type, weight, dimensions, packaging, safety requirements, applicable regulations and operational conditions. LocalHaat does not make claims of guaranteed delivery times, specific flight distances, or fleet sizes.
