Three young entrepreneurs from Baden have launched an ordering platform designed to enable environmentally conscious shopping and help farmers. At the start, 150 products are already available.

"We want to make weekly shopping easy and environmentally conscious," explain Nicolas Karlovics, Benedikt Wöber and Dominik Pfeffer. The three young entrepreneurs from Baden have therefore founded the "Regiomarkt" platform. This now enables farmers and food producers from the region to offer their goods together and clearly on a single website. At the start, twelve businesses are already offering a comprehensive range of around 150 regional products. "Further collaborations with farmers are planned," explains Wöber.

Everything at a glance
The online platform works very simply: customers can browse to their heart's content at www.regio-markt.at. Once customers have made their purchase, it is collected and delivered to the Gradwohl bakery in Antonsgasse, where it can be picked up using the order number or QR code. The promise: Anyone who orders by 11 p.m. on Wednesday will receive their products there on Friday.

Mobile app also under development
"We are relying on existing infrastructures because there are already too many vehicles on the road. The products come directly from the farmer without any detours," explain the young entrepreneurs, who are already working on a "Regiomarkt" app for cell phones.
