How does Discover Regenerative work?
Discover Regenerative is a Portal that showcases Australian regenerative producers and products. Simplifying how B2B buyers can connect.
Regenerative producers need to complete a form that provides details to curate their regenerative profile listing on the Portal. Producers can edit or update this form, or have the listing removed at any point in time, directly from their Open Food Network account.
Only eligible producers are listed on Discover Regenerative. If a producer’s eligibility lapses (i.e. certification expires and not renewed), their listing is removed.
Who is Discover Regenerative for?
Discover Regenerative is built to increase the visibility of the regenerative sector in Australia, and showcase regenerative farmers through a collaborative and trusted network of supporting organisations. By increasing visibility, the Portal will build awareness and engagement with B2B buyers interested in purchasing regenerative.
What type of producers are eligible to be showcased?
Producers eligible to be showcased on Discover Regenerative are Australian-based farming businesses that are directly involved in primary production and land management.
The Portal does not showcase regenerative food businesses not involved in primary production and land management. If this is the type of food business you are, we suggest you refer to the Sustainable Table Regenerative Map which features a broad range of regenerative businesses.
I’m a First Nations-led enterprise, how do I get listed?
If you don’t currently meet the eligibility criteria, and would prefer to use an alternative regenerative assessment process to the Sustainable Table Regenerative Map assessment in order to gain endorsement, please contact us to discuss further.
What is a B2B buyer and how will they use Discover Regenerative?
Wholesalers, food hubs, butchers, retailers, catering and food service companies, institutions (and more!) are types of Business-to-Business (B2B) buyers. Discover Regenerative aims to engage B2B buyers through the showcase of producers and products, and encourage them to connect directly with you!
Discover Regenerative is not a selling platform and focuses on the connection as the first step to exploring purchasing opportunities between potential B2B buyers and producers.
You can add specific information in the How to Buy section of their profile that can help guide B2B buyers interested in connecting with you.
