What you need to start

  • Your farm or business name
  • Where you farm (region and nearest city)
  • Your main products
  • A phone or computer. No registered company is needed to begin.

How it works

  1. 1

    List your produce

    Add what you have: crop, quantity, unit, price, harvest date and where buyers can collect. You set every price.

  2. 2

    Buyers find you

    Restaurants, shops and shoppers can order from you, join a Group Buy for your produce, or answer a buyer request with an offer.

  3. 3

    Deliver or let them collect

    Hand over at your farm gate, a pickup point you choose, or deliver where you do. You confirm each order.

  4. 4

    Get paid

    Your earnings and fees for each order are shown to you in your supplier dashboard. Payouts follow what is switched on in your country.

What you get

  • Bulk listings

    List quantity, unit, harvest window, minimum order and price tiers.

  • Group Buy reach

    Many small buyers pool orders so you can sell a whole harvest at once.

  • Buyer requests

    Respond to requests from restaurants, hotels and institutions with your offer.

  • Supplier aggregation

    Combine your supply with other farmers to fill large orders no single farm could.

Honest fees

Commission is a percentage of each sale. There's no sign-up fee.

Read from EMPAWAD's live fee configuration for Nigeria. Fees can change; the rate that applies is shown at checkout and on every payout statement.

Verification without a corporation

You don't need a registered company. Any one of these options gets you verified in Nigeria.

Questions

Who sets my prices?+

You do. EMPAWAD never sets, suggests or compares your prices with other farms. Group Buys and listings use the prices you choose.

Do I need a registered company?+

Not always. The verification options for your country are shown further down this page, and some do not need a company registration.

What is a Group Buy?+

Several buyers each order a smaller amount of your produce, and together they reach the quantity you need to make the sale worthwhile. Each buyer has their own order and receipt. It is not a joint venture.

What is the Farmer Direct badge?+

A badge EMPAWAD shows only after it has verified your farm and the claim that you sell your own produce. It is never self-declared.

What if I can only supply part of a large request?+

Buyer requests can be filled by several farms together, each supplying part with its own lot reference, so one farm does not need to cover everything.

Can I stop at any time?+

Yes. You can pause or archive a listing whenever you like.

Farm verification

Verify with your farm location, production evidence or an EMPAWAD field visit.

  • Restaurants that buy produce

    Restaurants and other businesses on EMPAWAD post what they need to buy. You can see open requests and make an offer on the ones that suit you.

  • Farmer Direct badge

    Shown only after EMPAWAD verifies your organization is the producer. Badges come from EMPAWAD review only — never from a checkbox.
