Shorter chains.
Fresher food.
We power local food marketplaces — giving marketplace owners, farms, and producers the tools to sell, order, and get paid. No more spreadsheets.
Our Mission
Empowering local food systems
We built Tream because local food deserves better infrastructure. Our platform empowers marketplace owners to run digital food markets — handling ordering, invoicing, payments, and logistics all in one place.
We give the small guys in the food system the tools that big chains take for granted — so that local producers, markets, and communities can build something that actually works for them.
“Our food systems need a major overhaul.”
Decades of consolidation have left local producers disconnected from the communities around them. We believe new technology changes that — not by disrupting from above, but by empowering those at a local level to connect, trade, and thrive.
This is not just a product for us. It's a cause.
How It Works
Simple for everyone
Set up your marketplace
Marketplace owners configure their market cycles, delivery windows, and when buyers can place orders — fully flexible, just like a farmers market.
Sellers list products
Farms and producers list their available inventory. Set up recurring listings or update fresh each cycle. Prices and quantities always in your hands.
Buyers place orders
Buyers order during the market window. Sellers see projected demand so they can plan ahead before the window closes.
Payments handled automatically
We take care of invoicing, payments, and credit notes. Sellers get paid. Marketplace owners collect their fee.
In the Wild
A marketplace example
See how one organisation is using Tream to run a local food marketplace in their community.
OxFarmToFork
Run by Good Food Oxfordshire, OxFarmToFork is an example of a local food marketplace powered by Tream — connecting farms and producers directly with buyers across their region.
Good Food Oxfordshire uses Tream to manage the full cycle: onboarding producers, running market windows, handling all payments and invoicing, and coordinating delivery — all through one platform.
