US: New marketplace for seasonal ag equipment sharing
HarvestPort Exchange, a shared economy marketplace for seasonally used agricultural assets, is launching on March 17, 2016. The company’s CEO, Brian P. Dawson said, “The goal of the platform is to put an extra dollar in the hands of farmers, without requiring them to adjust their seasonal operations in any way.”
HarvestPort will launch focusing on supply chain assets, and quickly expand into other categories such as heavy machinery, harvest assets, processor waste streams, and other seasonally utilised resources and assets critical to the operation of the client. HarvestPort’s marketplace will give clients opportunities to create new revenue streams with their peers in the speciality crop market in California. Companies can use HarvestPort to manage and mitigate the seasonal risk associated with farming, and in the fullness of time, as a seasonal planning dashboard for all of their growing, and packing needs.
HarvestPort’s St. Patrick’s Day launch event is being held at the new Western Growers Centre for Innovation and Technology, housed on the first floor of the Taylor Farms corporate headquarters in downtown Salinas, located at 150 Main Street Salinas, CA 93901.
