Thesis read
Economics may still work, but the source is not currently live.
Comes from a platform with softer recent reliability. Reinvestment logic is secondary here because planner surfaces currently exclude the record. Source is currently missing, so confidence stays low until it reappears.

"text": "Supply Chain Disruptions: Dependence on a limited number of suppliers for various products might disrupt the supply chain, which in turn may affect the ability to cope with the demand due to stock shortages, thus affecting customer satisfaction. 📌Possible mitigation: The business sources products from multiple local farmers and distributors, maintaining strong relationships within the supply chain. They have also implemented a required inventory management to ensure a steady and reliable supply of products. Market Competition: With the growing demand for safe food, new competitors are constantly emerging. Established brands with larger capital may dominate market share and customer acquisition. 📌Possible mitigation: The business differentiates itself through a commitment to high-quality traditional Bangladeshi ingredients, sustainability, and fast-paced delivery. Shotomul Agro maintains its market presence by consistently stocking a diverse range of high-demand, premium-quality products. Consumer Trust & Market Perception: The safe food industry is highly dependent on customer trust. Any negative perception due to product quality concerns or misinformation could affect brand reputation. 📌Possible mitigation: The business ensures strict quality control, transparent sourcing, and clear product labeling to maintain credibility and build long-term trust with customers.",

We generate revenue primarily through B2B sales, alongside retail and corporate sales partnerships. Our unique focus on sustainability and traditional Bangladeshi ingredients sets us apart. We've been recognized with the BSCIC award for our innovation in safe retail. We require funding to purchase livestock (for increasing inventory) and streamline our supply chain, enabling us to operate more efficiently and generate higher profits. The business has completed 100% repayment of the first two campaigns on time. Currently, 1 campaign is ongoing, but the total credit limit for Shotomul Agro will remain unchanged.

The business model (selling grocery & organic products) is Shariah-compliant. However, according to our Shariah Advisors, biniyog.io and the investors will NOT be liable if the day-to-day operations of the business are not fully Shariah-compliant. This is because investors will be going into a Murabaha/Bai’ Muajjal (sale contract), not profit-sharing or partnership. Please find contract details in the “Contract” section below. 💡 Is there any investment risk involved? Investments have risks by definition, especially if they are halal. Please find possible risk details for this campaign in the “Risk” section below.",
"contractDetailsText": "Duration of Investment The investment is for a period of 4 months, expected from September 2026 to February 2027. Projected ROI (Return on Investment) Projected Return on Investment (ROI): 5.67% (at actual) Projected ROI: 17% (annualized) biniyog.io will be charging investors a 0.31% success fee after successful repayments. Example: If an investor invests BDT 1,00,000, he /she is expected to make a profit of BDT 6,000 in the mentioned duration; biniyog.io will charge a 0.31% success fee (this % may vary slightly due to changes in calculation) on the repayment amount meaning BDT 333.33 will be deducted as the success fee. This means investors will be keeping BDT 5,667 as net profit. The net ROI of the investors will be 5.67% after deducting biniyog.io’s success fee. Contract Condition Investors will go into a Murabaha/Bai’ Muajjal agreement (sale contract) with Shotomul Agro for purchasing livestock and organic products. It will be a “buy-and-sell” process where investors will first buy the products through biniyog.io. Shotomul Agro will then buy those items from investors on credit and pay the amount after 4 months. biniyog.io will act as an agent for the investors and buy the products, take necessary ownership and risk of asset possession on their behalf, and then sell to Shotomul Agro. biniyog.io has proposed a price to Shotomul Agro for the products after considering a minimum 6% profit on the actual cost of product procurement. Shotomul Agro has agreed to it. Investors will be getting a net of 5.67% profit after deducting biniyog.io’s success fee on investor repayments.
