Beans Platform

The platform was developed to enable beans farmers and buyers to directly meet online to buy and sell beans by negotiating prices, volumes and varieties of beans they want. Smallholder bean farmers at harvest time do no know who will buy their beans. On the other hand, buyers do not know where to get the right varieties of beans they want and quantities. Through the platform, buyers are linked to the farmers therefore reducing the search for suitable varieties and volumes. With the system in place, buyers will be able to source their beans from farmers around the country especially beans which are rich in iron and zinc suitable for food security and processing value added products.
