Marketplace for local farm surplus: guaranteed offtake for small growers
App connecting small farmers and growers in the nearby area with consumers seeking quality local food at a fraction of typical supermarket prices.

You operate two-sided marketplace: on one side small farmers, vintners, livestock keepers and cheese makers with surplus, cosmetically imperfect vegetables or overstock. On other side consumers in the area seeking quality local food at fraction of normal price. Pickup points are at petrol stations, chemist shops or directly on farm.
A third of all fruit and vegetable harvest in the UK never reaches consumer due to cosmetic defects or overproduction. Farmers either throw it away or sell cheaply to processors. Simultaneously a growing group of people seek local food beyond supermarkets but has nowhere to source it without long farm visits.
๐พThird of harvest never reaches consumer
DEFRA UK study 2023: 30-35 percent of fruit and vegetable harvest ends as waste or cheap processor sales. Cause is combination of supermarket aesthetic standards and missing direct farmer-to-consumer channel. This is huge value reservoir nobody systematically serves.
