RUN A BOX DIVVY FOOD HUB

​

We invite you to join our food community, Run a Food Hub and be your own boss.

​

Become a Food Warrior for your neighbourhood. Start a Food Hub and earn income. Seasonally around 70-80%, especially the greens, are local and Sprayfree. All Backyard Growers are Sprayfree. We know our local growers, and by local they are within 200km of Sydney.

​

Box Divvy are food coops with a difference. No market runs, collecting cash, working out how to divide the produce. Use a Smart App to order together and get more of what you want.

​

Running you own small business can be scary so we've made it fun, rewarding and easy to do.

​

We want you to be successfully running a micro business that will change the way the food system currently works. You are given a Hub management tool (the Box Divvy App), a Hubster Coach, all the marketing materials you need, training and ongoing support. There's no investment in starting a Box Divvy Food Hub.

​

Box Divvy is a Passion Project but you do earn some income from running a Hub™ providing your neighbours with fresh produce and groceries up to 40% less than supermarkets. There's no storage, no long distribution channels, no food waste, and reduced carbon footprint. 

​

Box Divvy Hubsters and members get to know their farming families and backyard growers through you. We're now 5,500 families working together changing the food system by supporting local farmers, backyard growers including beekeepers, Australian farmers and grocery wholesalers.

​

What do I do to Run a Box Divvy Hub?

The person who runs the Hub is called a Hubster, that's you, and coordinate the Hub.

You need:

    * A space for you to pack like a carport or garage.

       If in a townhouse or unit you must get permission from management to run it.

    * 3-4 hours a week (based on 25 families) so if larger then more time input.

    * You need to be available to communicate with your members and pack their orders.

    * To be socially connected and able to do run a Facebook page  - Box Divvy set up for you.

    * Your Facebook page needs to be active.

    * We set up Hub, you promote on Facebook (Box Divvy page, your page plus local groups), 

       people pre-register to join.

    * To start you have15 families minimum then build to 25 families plus.

​

The Box Divvy Hub is connected via the App directly with the farmers and food wholesalers. Members order and pay for their orders online.

The Hubster receives an income based on Hub sales.

​

Get your neighbours on board with your Passion project as they are the ones who will join your Hub and save. Large families will especially benefit with savings and delight in being part of a community.

​

After you start your Hub you need to find a Replacement Hubster, someone living outside your place,

for filling in in case you:

• Get sick

• Go on holiday

• Have work commitments

• Have an emergency

We don't close except between Xmas and New Year for 2 weeks.

Farming families and family wholesalers rely on us to stay open PLUS your members.

​

Can it be PICK UP and Home Delivery?

You pack and members pick up from you during a 2 hour pick up window on the same day.

 

OPTIONAL: Home delivery - If you want, you can offer home delivery which members pay $7.00 Sydney area. You can outsource this if you wish.
