A pilot project in Göteborg

with HSB LIVING LAB

Experimenting with group orders

Hej, HSB Living Lab!

We are so excited to be part of a pilot with you.

Please let us introduce ourselves (insta).

We are a group of individuals living in Sweden with a passion for genuine food.

As you know, supply chains are efficient for mass-produced goods rather than healthier, small-scale, sustainably-produced or local items.

We are helping create local, lean, collaborative supply chains.

Our approach to supporting small suppliers is to focus on…

group orders

  • one person makes an order on behalf of a group of individuals,
  • the “members” of the group pay the “group admin” and collect their order in an agreed location. It works best with neighbours, colleagues, friends…

Some like to describe this as a B2C2C model.

We observe fun, social impact, like bonding within the group, through tasting, sharing tips, trial and error. Trial and errors, as it turns out 😉

CHOOSE YOUR SUPPLIERS

You probably know super suppliers that you love or support – we’d love to add them to a list that you can order from.

ORGANISE ORDERS

You can keep track of the orders on a page just for you. 

If you agree we can also send emails to you – a newsletter with that information.

On this page you will find links to “pools”, which is what we call a group order. The pool will show you what you can order – you choose. The “pool rules” will give you details (when, where, who, how).

“Joining the pool” makes you a pool member – you can create an order. Explanation here.

BEFORE WE START…

DO NOT EXPECT… a webshop. One person (the “group admin”) will need to coordinate order and delivery with a supplier, as well as payment. Actually, some of our suppliers have great webshops, which makes the process all the more easier.

DO EXPECT… alternative products at a fair price, lower logistics costs, more interaction with the people around you, new food experiences.

AND … ACTION!

If you want to take part in this, contact us. Let us know if you want to take part in the organisation, as a delivery support (a delivery is made to you, and other members of the group collect from you).

Happy pooling!
