Is chotu a Meat App or a Business Tool? Here’s How It Supports Local Butchers

mutton shops online

Today, when customers search for fresh mutton, goat meat, or local butchers, big meat delivery brands dominate the results. Apps like Licious and FreshToHome pull customers with packaging, ads, and convenience.

This makes many local butchers ask:

Is chotu just another meat delivery app?

Is it a marketplace for meat sellers?

Will it control my pricing or customers?

The answer is simple:

👉 chotu is NOT a meat delivery app.

👉 chotu is a digital business tool built specially to empower local butchers.

While meat delivery apps sell meat themselves, chotu helps your shop go online, build visibility, and serve customers directly-without any commission, interference, or complexity.

Let’s break down how chotu supports the growth of local butchers.

Why chotu Is NOT a Meat Delivery App

Apps that sell meat operate as:

  • centralised warehouses
  • branded suppliers
  • controlled pricing systems
  • commission-based marketplaces

Local butchers don’t get:

  • customer data
  • their own branding
  • organic visibility
  • direct WhatsApp orders
  • pricing control

But chotu is completely different.

It is built to give butchers back the power that big apps take away.

How chotu Supports Local Butchers as a Powerful Business Tool

Visit owner.chotu.com/sell-online.

In a few simple steps, your digital store will be ready:

  • Add your store name and mobile number
  • Use pre-built meat and mutton categories or upload your items with short descriptions

Your store goes live instantly-ready to share with customers on WhatsApp and Google.

2. Lets Customers Reach You Directly on WhatsApp

Unlike delivery apps that take orders themselves, chotu lets your customers:

  • browse your cuts
