For local producers
Sell direct, in step with the seasons.
Market gardener, livestock farmer, cheesemaker, beekeeper, winemaker or fruit grower: your customers like buying close to home, but they need to know what is available this week. We build a simple online shop, with collection on site or at a drop-off point, and stock levels that follow your harvests.
What holds you back
What makes direct selling hard
Producing already takes up most of the day. Direct selling should not add a second working day.
Orders by message and by phone
Texts, messaging apps, calls: orders arrive through every channel, and everything has to be copied onto a list before you pack the parcels or boxes.
Produce that changes every week
The harvest sets what is on offer. Something available on Monday can be sold out by Thursday, and a fixed list never matches reality.
Stock that is hard to keep track of
When you sell at the farm, at the market and online, it is easy to promise something that has already gone. The customer is disappointed on collection.
Badly organised collections
Collection day, drop-off point, time slot: without a clear framework, customers turn up at any time or forget to come.
What we put in place
What we set up
A shop made for fresh produce and limited quantities, simple to run in the height of the season.
An online shop that reflects who you are
Your products, your photos, the way you produce. The customer orders and pays online, or pays on collection if you prefer.
Seasonal products switched on in one tap
You make a product visible or hidden according to the harvest. Out-of-season products stay ready to come back, without re-entering everything.
Stock levels and an order cut-off time
Each product has its available quantity, and ordering closes at the time you set before packing. A single list groups the orders to prepare, by collection point.
Collection reminders and prepared messages
A reminder the day before collection, a message when a product someone is waiting for comes back: the messages are prepared and you approve them.
ExampleExample
Fictional example: a market garden selling direct
An example made up for illustration, with no real client. A market garden takes its veg box orders by text message and copies everything out in the evening. Its online shop shows the vegetables available each week, in limited quantities. Orders close the day before collection. On the day, the packing list is sorted by drop-off point, and each customer receives a reminder with the collection place and time.

Frequently asked questions
Can I sell by weight or by the item?
Yes. We adapt the shop to your units of sale: by weight, by the item, by the box or by the crate. For products sold by weight, the final price can be adjusted at packing time, following rules we agree together.
I also sell at the market. How do I avoid selling the same product twice?
You set the quantity reserved for online sales for each product. Once it is reached, the product shows as sold out. You can change it at any time from your phone.
Can I offer several collection points?
Yes. The customer chooses their location and time slot from the ones you open: at the farm, at a drop-off point or at the market. The packing list is sorted by location.
What if I have more than thirty products?
The Online shop includes up to 30 products. Beyond that, the price is quoted on request, in writing, before we start. We review your range together, season by season.
