Perfect Fit offers reusable pads to users in Indonesia, where 90% of people menstruating still use single-use pads due to limited access to sustainable solutions. They have a B2B business model for distribution in rural areas and a B2C model in urban areas. Their customers are broad ranging from 17-39-year-old women to NGOs, companies and community groups.

In rural areas, Perfect Fit recruits people from rural areas to become resellers, providing them with business training and menstrual health education. They have created a network of menstrual health agents to spread knowledge on menstruation.
