Thanks to April Parms Jones for hosting Nina Galle on the Growing for Market Podcast to talk about specific strategies farms can use to succeed with e-commerce! "More and more large meat suppliers are fighting for popular keywords like 'buy meat online'. If you're a smaller ranch, the best way to target your customers online is with niche keywords that you can rank highly on. Simply adding geographical tags like 'buy meat online in [city]’ can be really effective."

We’re happy to announce that Local Line has acquired Anjoy, a Michigan-based e-commerce platform that connects local food suppliers with grocers! Over the past two years, Anjoy has had an outsized impact on the Michigan local food industry, having onboarded more than two dozen suppliers including farms, butchers, and bakers, and more than one hundred buyers including restaurants and grocers. Through this acquisition, Anjoy suppliers will gain access to dozens of new features in the Local Line platform, and Anjoy buyers will benefit from access to thousands of new local food products that span every category, including produce, meat, bakery, and center store.

"Sometimes farmers' markets are hard. Sometimes, they're a necessary evil more than an amazing model for growing your business. The operations side of our software is focused on: "How are you actually getting your orders? How are you picking those from the field? How are you packing those? How are they getting to customers? How are you getting paid?" At the end of the day, it's all about trying to help as many family farms as possible succeed as independent entrepreneurs." shares Cole Jones , founder and CEO at Local Line in the most recent episode of the Growing for Market Podcast. Thanks Andrew Mefferd for having us on! Listen to the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/gHctrig2 #localfood #farmecommerce #familyfarm #farming #farmers #farmsoftware
