Impact
Overview
A web marketplace connecting rural agricultural producers directly with urban consumers. Farmers list crops directly, buyers browse live inventory and arrange delivery.
The Challenge
Smallholder farmers in Cameroon lose significant margin to intermediaries, while urban buyers pay inflated prices with no transparency on source or freshness.
The Solution
Built with Flask 3 on Python 3.12, using SQLAlchemy ORM, Flask-Login authentication, and Flask-WTF forms, styled with Tailwind CSS for a mobile-responsive interface, containerised with Docker.
Outcome
Direct farmer-to-buyer listings that remove intermediary margin, with a mobile-first design so farmers with basic smartphones can manage listings in the field.
