An Online Marketplace Connecting Local Food Producers with Wholesale Purchasers
Fresh food producers complete FoodChain’s online registration form. Within 24-hours they can log in to show off fresh products to eagerly-awaiting local restaurants, grocery stores and corporations. Sale-alert emails track orders and reorders showing product movement and purchaser preferences.
FoodChain provides one drop-off point for farmers and handles all customer deliveries, billing and payment processes. This means food producers get paid quickly!
Purchasers fill out an online application and within 24-hours are browsing a diverse catalog of local foods, using filters to find and compare producers’ products and pricing. One delivery for multiple producers’ products and just one invoice to pay!
