Quick Answer
What is GrowShare?
GrowShare is a farm-to-table grocery marketplace built by Akxens in the UK. Households order fresh produce, dairy, and bakery items directly from local farmers, who get fairer margins, while hyperlocal delivery gets food from farm to door in under 12 hours.
The challenge
Supermarket supply chains squeezed farmer margins and delivered less-fresh produce to consumers.
The solution
Akxens built a grocery app, farmer portal, and delivery routing system using a community-supported agriculture model.
