EcoProduce Launches eMarketplace for Organic Food and Eco-Products
Ecoproduce.com recently launched an online marketplace for organic and eco-friendly products, the first of its kind. The organisation wants to create a transparent online market for organically produced food and textiles.
(PRWEB) September 19, 2005 -- UK-based EcoProduce Ltd. recently launched a
new online auction for organic and eco-friendly products, the first of its
kind.
The organisation wants to create a transparent online marketplace
where buyers and sellers of eco-friendly or organic products can trade under one
virtual roof.
The company has invested in customised auction software to
provide an easy-to-use interface for both buyers and sellers.
Whilst
anyone can buy, new sellers are manually checked and given selling rights, which
helps to ensure that only products that have been produced organically or in an
eco-friendly way, can be listed.
Managing Director, Richard Igoe, says
the success of this venture depends very much on being able to attract large
numbers of buyers and sellers, and hopes that environmentally concious
individuals and companies will start to use the site.
Some organic food
products currently listed include wine, olive oil, grains, tea, natural honey,
and eco-friendly textiles include organic cotton t-shirts and hemp products.
Hemp is a substitute for cotton but needs much less water and no artificial
chemicals or fertilisers for production.

Igoe.
