One of the major benefits of Open Food Network platform for us is the user-friendliness of the platform both for our producers who are uploading information to their shops, and also for our customers so they’re able to search for what they’re after.

When it comes to e-commerce solutions – values matter. 

No – we are not talking about Price, Cost of Ownership, Setup Fees or Payment Charges (which are all very reasonable with the Open Food Network). 

We are talking about the values behind the organisation.

Our mission is to create a new, fairer food system where farmers and producers receive a fair share of the profits, and resilient local food systems connect people and producers while regenerating the planet.  

By using our software platform, you are helping us to create the software, tools and resources needed to bring this new food system to life.
