Business Needs for Agriculture Marketplace Development
Understanding your business needs, one solution at a time.
Lack of digital platform
No access to local farmers
Creating a global network
Defining The Problem
We have an itch to do deep research about the problem.
- South Africa is home to high-quality agricultural products.
- Global enterprises are seeking access to these products.
- International enterprises can access South African markets and suppliers.
- However, there are no current platforms for local farmers to directly connect with these enterprises and local traders.

Understanding The Need
Our versatile portfolio makes this easy for us.
- The client aimed to enhance Angola’s Agriculture industry by creating an online marketplace.
- Zealous System was approached to develop a web platform for farmers and traders to trade securely.

- Zealous System created a robust web platform offering trading, farming equipment/raw material sourcing, financial services, legal advice, and an all-inclusive digital marketplace.

What Zealous Proposed ?
Research. Understood. Proposed.
Agriculture marketplace
With domain specific processes and user specific features, Zealous proposed a digital marketplace where farmers and traders can connect with each other.
Quotation based trades
To establish a genuine trade and a negotiation platform, we suggested that trades were finalized based on the quotations placed by farmers or traders with each other.
User and role management
For enterprises that wanted to list their resources on the platform, we suggested a sub user System that can define roles and provide access control capabilities for the same.
