Sonny,
That business model works extremely well for food in countries like India,
puts earning power in the hands of lots of families that need it - our milk
comes out of a buffalo in front of our house every morning, the fruit and
vegetables we eat have not even remotely been near a cold storage, the rice
comes from my family's hereditary lands in our village, the wheat is ground
in a mill every week, as is our coffee freshly roasted and ground to our
specifications and delivered at home every three days.
Cheers
Jayanand
