Ooka - Vanderbijlpark

Ooka.co.za connects local small-scale farmers with consumers, allowing them to make a living selling their fruits, vegetables, and other produce. Customers can purchase local items, which are often tastier and less processed than store-bought items. By connecting with the farmers, customers can feel confident that their food is sustainably grown and ethically sourced. Additionally, Ooka provides farmers with the opportunity to seek crowd-funding to expand their operations and access capital. This platform also allows the general public, including students, to access fresh, healthy produce. Furthermore, any excess food can be donated to charitable organizations and NGOs, such as senior living homes and orphanages. In this way, Ooka not only reduces carbon emissions by connecting farmers and customers on a local level, but it also helps to feed those in need.
