How do you deal with the political volatility? I'm pretty sure Amazon doesn't have to think too much about Hartal or their delivery trucks being burned.

  We will have to price it in as a systematic risk. Our competitors in the local market face the same risks, and when Amazon does come in they will have to face it too. For now we are focused on competing locally. Things have not been all that bad for us in Dhaka -- we actually deliver a lot faster on hartal days. And insurance works just fine in Bangladesh once you figure out the claims process.

    Do you deliver in your trucks on Hartal days? It would certainly be awesome if they didn't attack your trucks because you're simply taking food & essentials to people.

      +1, hopefully we can make that happen.
