The supply bulletin is sent to the buyer base to promote what produce is available on the platform. The demand bulletin lets farmers share what they can supply now, which gets sent out to the buyer base as a campaign.
Beans are graded by qualified graders. For other produce, the buyer will buy off the farmer description of the commodity sold: grade, sizing, variety etc. A picture must be included by the farmer when listing their produce. When delivered, if the buyer feels the received goods do not align to the lot description, they can reject the produce.
Upon request, HelloChoice can facilitate the sending of samples.
