The brief
The client

The Premium Basket is a family dry fruit business founded more than three decades ago by Mr. Gulamabbas Bata and now run by his children. It sells handpicked dry fruits, nuts, dates, makhana and nut butters direct to consumers, including a storefront for the US. The range runs from everyday snacking to gift boxes.

The challenge

Almost every click came from people searching the brand name. For the searches that drive the category, which dry fruits to buy and what they do for you, the site sat on page 5 of Google, behind marketplaces and established brands.

Our approach
  • Guides built around real questions on the benefits of anjeer, apricots, makhana and dates.
  • Hindi and English because buyers search in both.
  • On-page and technical SEO across products, collections and the US storefront.
