From warehouse gate to final payout — how a trade on the exchange actually works
Regulated by WRRB
Warehouse Receipts & Auction Lots
Sellers deliver produce to a licensed warehouse, where it is weighed, graded and stored under regulation of the Warehouse Receipts Regulatory Board (WRRB). Each deposit becomes an electronic warehouse receipt, and receipts are assembled into auction lots with published quality and quantity — so buyers bid on verified goods, not promises.
- WRRB Regulated
- Graded Lots
- Traceable Receipts
Bid Only What Your Bond Covers
Security Bonds & Online Auctions
Licensed buyers fund a security bond first — the platform blocks any bid their cover cannot support. Timed auctions run with fixed tick sizes and auto-bid, and the seller confirms every sold lot through consent before it counts.
- Security Bonds
- Live Price Discovery
- Seller Consent
Through the Banking System
Payment Settlement & Release
Winning buyers are invoiced and settle payment through the banking system. Once payment is confirmed, sellers are paid out and the buyer receives a release order to collect the goods from the warehouse — every shilling matched in reconciliation reports.
- Bank Settlement
- Release Orders
- Full Reconciliation
