For auction houses and grower associations
Your own trading platform, without building it yourself.
Use OpenAGF as your own environment, under your own name. Your growers register their lots, your buyers respond via a link, and you decide per product what goes through you.
The environment for auctions and associations already works. We are looking for a first pilot partner.
Grower 1042 · you sell on the grower’s behalf
Grower 0317 · may offer it themselves
Your growers, your buyers, your rules
Your growers register, you take the lots and sell to your own buyers.
Your growers
Members register lots from their phone or computer.
The auction house in control
You take lots in full or in part and sell on the grower’s behalf.
Your buyers
Buyers you choose. They respond via a link, no account, in their own language.
Whatever you do not take, the grower may offer themselves. The grower does not see your buyers, and you do not see their address book or their own trade.
Delivery obligation per product, not per grower
Apples through the auction, cherries free: OpenAGF knows the difference. Offering a product with a delivery obligation is refused until you release the lot. Your members work with one account.
| One grower’s product | Route |
|---|---|
| Apples and pears | Delivery obligation · first to your auction |
| Cherries | Free · the grower’s own groups |
| What you do not take | Released · the grower offers it themselves |
What you get
An environment under your own name
Your name and colour, also above the offers buyers see. Your own domain and logo are planned.
You control admission
You decide who joins as a buyer. Checking company or VAT numbers is planned.
Agreement, confirmation and dossier
Every agreement is recorded with time, quantity and price, with an order confirmation for the buyer.
Secure payment Planned
Through a payment provider, with extra security for a new buyer.

Frequently asked questions
Can members sell without going through us?
Only products without a delivery obligation, and lots you have released.
Who owns the buyers and their data?
You do. Your growers do not see your address book, and you do not see theirs. We lay down the arrangements in a data processing agreement before the pilot.
Do our buyers need to create an account?
No. They get an email with a personal link and respond there, in their own language.
Does it work alongside our current auction system?
Yes, it runs separately from your existing system. There are no integrations yet.
Book a call
Half an hour to see whether it fits your auction or association. No obligation.
