RUN A BOX DIVVY FOOD HUB

We're a Social Enterprise with the aim to change the food system.

If you're a passionate foodie then come on the journey - 13,000 families are currently with us and supporting Australian farmers and food wholesalers.

Start a Food Hub and earn some income whilst building a food community. You'll be offering your neighbours a service where they can save whilst really supporting our farmers. Seasonally around 60-70%, especially the greens, are local to Sydney, some inter-state produce seasonally. We know our local growers, and by local they are within 200km of Sydney. we tell the stories about our growers and weekly you can tell your members about them.

When we purchase from inter-state we have not met with these growers so we state it's conventionally grown. Learn more about this here.

Box Divvy are Food Hubs with a difference because there are:

No market runs, collecting cash, working out how to divide the produce.

You do need good communication skills, be on social media, have the time to do it, and passionate about changing the food system.

STEP 1 You apply to RUN A HUB and are then interviewed by phone. You will be asked to join a Hub to experience the App and ordering system, but if you live outside our Hub range then chat to us about this.

 

Once you are approved to Run a Hub then the Hub is set up. Box Divvy provide you full training and ongoing support. You are given marketing material, a Facebook page, you promote your Hub to your neighbours and community. Members join and when you have 12 people registered we open the Hub. 

STEP 2 You prepare the packing area. The produce and groceries are delivered to you. You will pack the orders on packing day. You need shelves ie bunnings or folder tables.

STEP 3  Hub Opens. You are given training via Zoom how to manage Hub members and the ordering App.

Members get an email and download the App and are given a User Guide.

 

STEP 4 You set up Star Products and manage this. When Hub Order closes you have a packing guide to download.

STEP 5 Produce and groceries delivered on Hub day. You pack and members pick up from you same day. No storage, no repacking, no cutting. You check all picked up.

STEP 6 You provide members with guidelines on when and how to communicate with you ie: your availablility if a product issue or other.

STEP 7 Build your food community. Post 3 times at least a week on your Box Divvy Facebook page which Box Divvy provide together with information in a newsletter. Wncourage your members to follow you and comment on this page. To share their recipes and cooking.
