With over $160 million in local food sales through our system, let us tell you why LFM stands above the rest.
WILL LOCAL FOOD MARKETPLACE WORK
for MY BUSINESS?
From small farms to wholesale distributors, our customizable platform works for fresh food businesses of all scales.
“What I love is the integration between the orders coming in and populating invoices, and then with a click of a button generating my harvest list, my pack list, and my labels. That’s what saves me hours every week.”
-Caroline Pam, Kitchen Garden Farm
“LFM keeps this food hub spinning! We are able to accept orders 24/7, which is big for a small distributor. The customer interface is familiar for online shoppers, and the backend is easy for novice sellers to manage their products and availability. We’re thrilled to be able to bring fresh local produce to customers twice a week.” —Cat Olson, Puget Sound Food Hub
“LFM is so open to feedback. There’s always an open door for collaboration, and I can’t tell you how much we feel supported from LFM.” —Emily Mayberry, Sales Manager at WMGC
A Partner with the Right Values
We believe that eating locally is fundamental in building a more sustainable world. Our aim with Local Food Marketplace is to increase the amount of food purchased and eaten locally by providing technology and services for farms and food hubs to sell and distribute local food to consumers, restaurants, grocery stores, and institutions. We believe that empowering local businesses, cooperatives, and non-profits with the right technology will help make strong and diverse local food systems where food hubs, producers, buyers, and eaters all benefit.
In addition, we aren’t just some faceless tech company: we’re dedicated folks with decades of experience running farmers markets, farms, and food hubs. We form real, lasting relationships. You can count on a superior level of service when you work with LFM.
