§ 01

The middle of the supply chain is opaque on purpose.

Right now the middle of the supply chain is opaque on purpose. Produce changes hands four times between the field and your kitchen. The coop gets half what you pay. You get a delivery note that says "Mediterranean" and hope.

Six origins, one hub, four cities.

The UK buys £7.8B of fresh produce from abroad and sells £168M back — 46 pounds in for every one out. 84% of UK fruit is imported. Most of it moves through a single Dutch gateway. This is the corridor we're rebuilding, origin by origin.

Five screens, one pipeline.

From a coop manager’s sunrise tap to a chef’s evening review of the signed pack — one trade, five surfaces, T−2 days to T+5. These aren’t mockups; they’re the live product.

    Burak accepts the offer at sunrise.

    A buyer in London has tagged 200 kg of Solliès figs. Burak's phone shows the offer inside a published price band — €13.50/kg, the mid is €13.20 — alongside his EUR balance and the lock he's on for FX. Two taps to accept. The settlement hash is visible before he signs.

    Mourad sees what's arriving — and what needs a decision.

    Today's arrivals sit loudest. A six-SKU watchlist shows live reference bands. An exception banner on Order #1076 surfaces a new predicted ETA with one-click accept. Every KPI is service-critical: on-time-in-spec, disputes opened, lead time. Not vanity numbers.

  3. Order configurator · desktop

    The £2,461 decision, with friction where it belongs.

    Route, volume, grade, supplier identity — every choice shows its price consequence in real GBP. A triple summary (goods · hub · onward + insurance) maps cleanly to FX-locked total. A read-before-confirm checkbox carries the dominant winter failure mode for this corridor: Algeciras ferry slippage, 11% of trades.

    Ops works one surface: trades, stages, confidence, flags, attention queue. The "needs attention" panel links directly into the affected row; disputes open a different pane entirely. Every ETA tagged P · D · V so nothing reads as more confidently than it should.

    One document. Two audiences. Zero marketing.

    The pack is an audit artefact and a sales asset. Toggle between Auditor view (hashes, signatures, Merkle root, per-leg telemetry) and Public view (grower narrative, harvest photo, chain-of-custody summary). Export a signed PDF. Share a per-recipient link. The same document goes to a CSDDD auditor and the chef's PR team.

Prove it on one delivery.

A single delivery tells you everything you need to know.

One SKU, one corridor, one evidence pack. We'll match a product you already order and put it head-to-head against your current supplier. If the pack and the plate don't both win, we don't push for a second.
