The Market Based Business Continuity Plan for the four municipalities – Beldani, Dodhara Chandani, Bheemdatt and Parshuram municipality is developed following a wholesome approach with an objective to facilitate the continuity of business activities, even in the event of the any crisis or disaster. The BCP contains measures, arrangements, strategies and procedures necessary to resume critical market services until the return to normal business operations. Though initial objective of the study prioritized three market products – Rice, Lentil and Soap, but the exercise later on adopted a more holistic approach observing the characteristics of the market which were relatively small in size and largely dominated by retailers trading in multiple products.
