How we fulfil an order

Supply organised around your order, not around the market

Most smallholder produce reaches buyers through informal trade, with no records and no quality discipline. We reverse the sequence: your order is confirmed first, then we mobilise, check and record supply against it.

Seven stages

From your requirements to your warehouse

Each stage produces a record you can ask for.

  1. 01

    Buyer requirements and offtake planning

    Your order comes first. No farmer is mobilised until offtake is secured.

    • Commodity, volume and quality specification agreed with you in writing.
    • Delivery location and delivery window fixed before sourcing starts.
    • Sourcing communities chosen for crop quality, logistics and your specification.

    RecordA written order: volume, specification, location and delivery terms.

  2. 02

    Farmer and aggregator mobilisation

    We organise farmers in the chosen communities to supply against your order.

    • Farmers sign on at village meetings, and every farmer and plot is on file before the season starts.
    • The quality standard and collection arrangements are explained up front.
    • Expected supply is planned community by community against the order volume.

    RecordFarmer registration: who supplies, from which plot.

  3. 03

    Crop production and field coordination

    Field teams follow the crop through the season, so harvest meets the order.

    • Plots are visited through the season.
    • Each supported farm is marked and on record.
    • Harvest timing is tracked so collection can be scheduled.

    RecordField data kept against each registered plot.

  4. 04

    Collection and aggregation

    Farmers bring produce to a collection point in their community.

    • Produce is weighed transparently in the open.
    • Every bag is weighed, labelled and recorded against the farmer who supplied it.
    • Farmers are paid on the day of collection.

    RecordA collection record for every bag: weight, farmer, collection point.

  5. 05

    Quality inspection and grading

    Produce is checked against your specification before it is accepted.

    • Cleaned, graded and moisture-checked before collection.
    • Produce that falls short of specification is rejected.
    • Joint inspection with the buyer where agreed, as on our 50 MT soybean delivery in October 2026.

    RecordTest results kept for every delivery, accepted or rejected.

  6. 06

    Inventory recording and traceability

    Accepted produce goes to our storage facility, re-bagged and on record.

    • Produce is hauled from collection points to the storage facility.
    • Bags are re-bagged and labelled as lots for your order.
    • Each lot is traced from the collection point, through storage, to your warehouse.

    RecordSourcing and inventory records, available to buyers on request. Buyer accounts with online access to these records are in development.

  7. 07

    Logistics, dispatch and delivery

    Your lot is dispatched with delivery records, then reconciled.

    • Dispatch is planned to your delivery location and window.
    • The smallest pickup is one truckload, 8 MT.
    • Volume, quality and payments are matched after every dispatch.

Quality and commercial controls

Discipline at every hand-over

  • Agreed in writing first. Commodity, volume, specification, delivery location and window are agreed with you before sourcing starts.
  • Checked at the collection point. Produce is cleaned, graded and moisture-checked before it is accepted. Off-spec produce is rejected.
  • Joint inspection where agreed. You or your agent can inspect with us before collection, as on our 50 MT soybean delivery in October 2026.
  • Reconciled after dispatch. Volume, quality and payments are matched after every dispatch, and the records are available to you on request.
