Problem
Consumers often lack convenient access to fresh, seasonal produce from local farms, relying on distant retailers that add intermediaries, increase carbon footprints, and reduce profit for producers.
Solution
Cueillette provides a digital marketplace that links consumers directly with regional farmers, enabling online ordering of seasonal fruits and vegetables. Users select a preferred pickup location—such as their workplace, a locker, a local shop, or the farm itself—and collect orders at their convenience. Payments are routed straight to the producers, eliminating commissions and ensuring fair pricing. By shortening the supply chain, the platform reduces transportation emissions and supports the local agricultural economy. The service is offered via a free mobile app that notifies users when orders are ready for pickup.
