Hong Kong Local Farms
Setting up an online platform to facilitate sales of local agricultural products
The venture proposes to set up an online platform which connects low-income local farmers with consumers to facilitate direct sales. The platform offers a comprehensive selection of fresh and safe agricultural products at affordable prices to consumers, and at the same time widens the sales channel of local farmers.
The “team purchase” model enables the consumers to invite friends and families to purchase the agricultural products together and thus enjoy a more attractive price and save the transportation cost.
The venture created job opportunities for housewives who were employed to collect and deliver agricultural products from the farms to households.
