PROVENANCE HUB FOR PRODUCERS

OPTIMISING B2C

By working directly with growers and producers Provenance Hub helps them to scale and grow their brand and business, as well as to build sales and loyal customers in new markets.

Showcasing their brand and selling products to Provenance Hub’s customers on our food market allows our community of producers to retain a higher percentage of retail margin that would be lost through sales via wholesalers and distributors.

Provenance Hub offers a transparent, simple, commission-based pricing structure and acts at the contracting party with it’s customer, taking care of any cross border VAT / tax collection and liability, as well as managing all customer service issues.

OPPORTUNITY

Provenance Hub enables its community of producers to reach customers in their home and other European markets through its multi-language, multi-currency store.

By working on an invitation-only basis with our curated selection of the best growers and producers, we offer our community new cross-sell opportunities, as well as overcoming consumer lethargy to single category producer sites.

Meanwhile our Producer Office allows producers to track sales that we make, view and dispatch orders, as well as manage invoicing and payments for sales that are made.

Our Producer Services Team are just a message or call away and there to help make working with us simple.

SIMPLICITY

We work with you to understand your business and your products. Our Marketing Team take care of content and asset creation, while our Producer Services Team take on the ‘heavy-lifting’ of product creation on our site, leaving our community to get on with running their business and creating fabulous tasting, mouthwatering foods.

DELIVERING A HEALTHIER PLANET

We’re proud to be one of the first online stores to completely offset carbon emissions from every delivery. Every time you purchase an item on Provenance Hub, we balance out the carbon emissions from its delivery by creating an equal positive environmental impact.

PROVENANCE ASSURED

Provenance Assured is the minimum requirement that every product from every producer must meet to be offered for sale in our store. Internal processes are carried out by our Producer Services Team and include checks, vetting and verification against a number of criteria to establish the authenticity of the product and its production. Only once these checks have been completed do we then award the Provenance Assured™ mark and list the products for sale.

Provenance Assured Plus+ is for those growers and producers who are already working with relevant external, independent or international certification bodies. For these producers and their products, we award their products the Provenance Assured Plus+™ mark and include details of the independent certifications achieved in the product details ‘certification’ section on our site.

WHAT PROVENANCE MEANS TO US

PROVENANCE

Provenance is the deciding factor for products that we sell on Provenance Hub. For us provenance is the sum of where the ingredients of each product come from, by whom it has been made, why, and how they are produced. (Where, How, Who, Why = W3H1). We work with our producer community to offer their provenance-assured products (often small batch) for sale on our store.

Is Provenance Hub a Marketplace?

Provenance Hub is not a marketplace. The contract of sale resides with Provenance Hub.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN A CHANGING WORLD

OUR MISSION

We believe and advocate transparency, authenticity, and better consumer understanding of the importance of how, where and by whom the food they eat has been produced. Our collective approach brings together growers and producers from across the UK and Europe. As our community grows we hope to better advocate their needs to other organisations and governments, as well as be a driving force for better consumer understanding of how the food they eat is produced.
