What is order buying?

Order buying is remote-bidding done on behalf of restaurants, institutions, organizations, or individuals by the CPA’s designated Order buying. It’s a great way for kitchen staffs, schools, and clubs to source fresh, local produce without taking time out of their busy days to come to the auction. Our Order Buyer will take your highest bid and preferred quantity and will be present on the floor to represent you.

How does it work?

  1. Orders are placed weekly by 3pm on Mondays and Thursdays with our order form below.
  2. Customers provide their desired products and their maximum price for each variety.
  3. Our order buyer uses those bids to buy produce on the floor in real time on auction days.
  4. After the auction, order buyer notifies partners via email to let them know what was purchased for them that day.
  5. Pick-up or delivery can be arranged for successful bids based on the buyer’s convenience and/or proximity.
