A major milestone
Today, we are celebrating a major milestone in the journey of FarmPlace. We have officially been granted Google Play production access for our Android app, clearing a vital path to bring FarmPlace directly to Android users.
Behind this achievement are countless hours of building, testing, fixing, rethinking, and pushing forward, even when that progress was not visible to anyone else.
We are not building it just to ship an app
We are building FarmPlace because farmers deserve better access to markets, and buyers need an easier way to discover agricultural produce.
Transport providers deserve direct access to logistics opportunities, and critical agricultural knowledge should be seamless to find and share.
The real test begins in November
Getting production access is an important step, but it is not the finish line. The real test begins when people start using what we have built.
We are currently preparing for our first pilot in Zimbabwe this November, where we will begin learning from real users, testing our assumptions, and refining FarmPlace based on firsthand experiences.
We do not claim to have solved every problem in agriculture, but we are putting in the work to build something genuinely useful, one step at a time.
Today, we celebrate our progress. Tomorrow, we keep building.
FarmPlace. Buy. Sell. Communicate. Grow.
