For trade buyers

Stop sourcing from spreadsheets. Query the graph.

The desk knows every Western Cape producer's attributes, credentials, prices and live availability. Post what you actually need — spec, volume, price band, paperwork — and get back matches that come with their reasoning attached.

01

Post a requirement

Structured, not free-text: category, attribute spec, volume, price band, credentials, Incoterms. Public — or blind, so the market never sees your hand.

02

The graph matches

Attribute similarity, varietal coverage, credential fit, price banding, posted availability and sell-through — scored per factor, explained in plain trade English.

03

Negotiate in the room

Spec sheets, counter-offers, sample requests and documents in one auditable deal room. No forwarded PDFs, no lost threads.

04

Confirm and settle

Both sides confirm the value; only then is the 1.5% success fee invoiced — capped at R150 000. Incumbent brokers take 2–3%, uncapped.

A real match, straight from the engine
