AgriMove Africa
Agricultural logistics marketplace
The challenge
Produce spoiled while farmers searched for transport and buyers could not confirm supply, because the three parties never met in one place.
Connects farmers, transporters and buyers so produce moves from farm to market, cutting post-harvest losses and logistics friction.
Our role: Marketplace engineering and matching logic
Architecture decisions
Three-sided marketplace model
Farmers list produce, transporters list capacity, buyers post demand — matching happens on route, volume and window.
Perishability-aware ranking
Matches weight time-to-market, not just price, because a cheap slow truck is the expensive option for tomatoes.
Low-bandwidth first
Compressed payloads and progressive loading keep the app usable from rural connections.
