Forager is a digital B2B procurement platform for local food, designed to simplify the sourcing process for wholesale buyers and local food suppliers. Our mission is to make locally sourced food more widely available for everyone, which we believe is only possible when it becomes just as easy to buy from independent local farms as it is from broad-line distributors. Our solution streamlines every step of the sourcing process for local food from procurement to payment, taking out all the emails, phone calls, and paperwork. We save the time and cost in local sourcing, so buyers and farmers can focus on what they love most: sharing and growing local food.
Since launching its beta in June 2016, Forager has enabled hundreds of thousands of dollars in local sourcing, while cutting costs for buyers, increasing sales for suppliers, and stocking the shelves with fresh local food for everyone. It takes a community of growers, grocers, co-ops, vendors, restaurants, schools, and other organizations to create a sustainable food culture. So we built a digital local food supply chain to connect them and help to drive economic growth and reduce waste.
