Overview

​

RuralShores' business model has been created to ensure scalability and sustainability of its operations by creating real value, not only for the shareholders, but for all stakeholders and to have a positive contribution to the communities in which it functions. Hence utmost care is taken to ensure the standardization of the centers across the landscape of India.

Most of our rural centers are fully owned by RuralShores. However, for few, the investment in infrastructure (land, building, equipment) is made by our partners (rural entrepreneurs) while RuralShores manages the business. The ownership model has however no bearing on business of RuralShores.
