Indo-US cooperative linkage

How HarvestLinx Works

A member-governed institution on the demand side, matched with farmer-owned organisations on the supply side.

This is not a charity model, a remittance scheme, or a cultural nostalgia project. It is a structural market intervention: a member-governed institution on the demand side matched with democratically governed institutions on the supply side.

Disintermediated supply chain with better returns to farmers and pure products at better pricing for members.

Four-Stage Supply Chain

1

Farmer-Owned Aggregation (India)

Farmer-owned organisations collect from member farmers, process, and pack for export.

2

Export Consolidation (India)

Licensed Export Management Organisation consolidates shipments, obtains certificates, and arranges sea freight.

3

US Import & Warehousing

FDA-registered import broker clears customs and warehouses at regional hubs.

4

Member Fulfillment

Membership retail stores (Costco model). Local WhatsApp groups coordinate group delivery at one location on scheduled dates.

  • Institutional bank account, GST registration, and IEC (Import Export Code)
