Congratulations on tackling a big problem. Couple of questions:

Do you have any plans to achieve FairTrade status for international buyers?

Could you imagine making transaction records on the platform available to help smallholders get finance at more affordable rates when needed at some stage in future?

Currently, we haven't started looking at international buyers. So unfortunately, I can't answer that as of today.

The second aspect is something we have definitely thought about and which does hold a lot of value as we move forward. Great to see that you mentioned it as this is a problem many farmers do face.
