It would be worth noting that several E-stores have come into existence and Unistal E-store is one of them. DQ Channels has been organising webinars to make the audience aware of the main features of these E-stores so that they can make an informed decision about joining these platforms.
These webinars are very popular among the Partners community and they have attended them in large numbers.
The need for these E-stores was felt during lockdown when the Partners couldn't reach their customers through physical stores. It was then that they began to think in terms of having an online presence and the idea of E-stores came about.
