locavorest

Locavorest is a locally-owned, locally-focused online farmers market & delivery service that connects local producers and consumers. The online platform allows consumers to order fresh, local produce, meat, cheese and bread and more on a weekly basis. Consumers can then pick up their orders from Locavorest Hubs. These Hubs are set up out of homes, schools, workplaces, fitness centres and community centres with help from individuals and businesses in the community. Our goal is to leverage technology and engage with local producers to develop a new, simple and convenient distribution channel through which consumers can purchase local food directly from producers, thereby revolutionizing the food supply chain and building towards a food-secure Peterborough. Locavorest utilizes technology to minimize waste and deliver the minimum viable product to the consumer without costly infrastructure such as warehouses. Partnerships are made with individuals and businesses so pick-up locations can be set up out of their homes, schools, workplaces, fitness centres and community centres. What makes Locavorest different from its competitors is its business model. Some of the highlights are: Zero inventory. Zero warehouse costs. No traditional door to door transportation costs. Partnerships with individuals and businesses. Visit Locavorest.com for more information.
