Our platform offers New Product Developers, SMEs, and Food manufacturers the flexibility to buy a wide range of food ingredients at competitive prices and in whatever quantities they require – be it a small sample, a 5 Kg pack, or bulk quantity orders. EasyBuy Ingredients is projected to be the amazon for B2B food ingredients in the next 6 months. We know first-hand that sourcing food ingredients and managing an inventory is one of the biggest challenges a food manufacturer has to face, having run a successful D2C brand. The amount of time and resources we had to waste posting requirements on IndiaMart and making endless calls to suppliers every time we had to purchase a food ingredient. And when we did make the final purchase after days of negotiations and comparing prices, there was no surety that we bought a genuine product at the best price. And all this hassle just to wait endlessly in the dark for the order to be delivered with no transparency on delivery timelines.
