The Problem
Millions of pounds of backyard fruit go to waste every year in California alone. Homeowners with fruit trees often have more produce than they can consume, while their neighbors drive miles to buy imported, less-fresh alternatives.
Existing solutions like farmers markets are limited by time and location. Grocery store produce travels thousands of miles and sits in storage for weeks before reaching consumers.
Our Solution
PickFresh is a mobile-first marketplace that makes it easy for anyone to buy and sell hyperlocal produce. Sellers list their backyard fruit in seconds, and buyers discover fresh produce within walking distance.
We handle payments through Stripe, provide a messaging system for coordination, and enable contactless porch pickup for convenience and safety.
Business Model
Revenue Model
We charge a 12% commission on each transaction. Sellers get their first 3 sales completely free to encourage adoption.
Buyers pay no fees. This creates a low-friction experience that drives repeat usage and word-of-mouth growth.
Growth Strategy
We're currently focused on Los Angeles, building density neighborhood by neighborhood. Strong local network effects make the platform more valuable as more neighbors join.
Expansion to additional California markets and beyond is planned as we prove the model in LA.
