According to the article, the Maryland based farm had been delivering milk in glass bottles to customers’ doorsteps since 2001. Before it started using software for dairy farm management, it had a very rudimentary delivery system for its products. With the implementation of Delivery Biz PRO, South Mountain Creamery was able to launch a virtual farmer’s market.

The dairy management technology enabled the company to deliver dairy, meat, and produce to locations within a 70-mile radius from its base. The delivery software facilitated the delivery of items from other farms, allowing customers to add complementary foods to their orders.

Delivery Biz PRO is known for its user-friendly and business-friendly solutions. Customers can easily place items in a shopping cart online and make changes up until 11:59 on the night before delivery. There’s no need to check out since the items in the cart at the cut-off time are automatically packaged for delivery. Delivery Biz PRO’s dairy management software is aimed at making the delivery process as simple and efficient as possible.

Fresh Produce Software That Grows With You

Today, we’re going to take some time to tell you about Ooooby (that’s right — four O’s). Ooooby is a New Zealand-based digital farmer’s market. The name Ooooby is an acronym that means “Out of our own back yards.” 

Ooooby’s goal is to put “small-scale sustainable farming at the heart of our food system.” They do this by fostering a network of local, organic growers who produce a variety of fruits and vegetables. Ooooby receives produce directly from their suppliers and hand-pack it to be shipped directly to customers. 

Since its humble beginnings in 2010 — working out of a converted shipping container and delivering produce to just 50 customers — Ooooby has grown exponentially. They now operate in Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Taranaki, and Christchurch, New Zealand; Sydney, Australia; and Fresno, California, and have plans to expand in the near future. They have now delivered over 345,000 boxes of fresh, local produce to over 17,000 homes. Ooooby uses the Delivery Biz Pro produce delivery software to get their food where it needs to be. 

The Right Software For The Right Business

At Delivery Biz Pro, we know how important it is to pick the right software for your business model. Our produce management software optimizes your business at every stage from a beautiful new website where your customers can load their carts with their favorite items to automated delivery routing so your drivers are empowered to make changes on the road if needed. 

Pete Russell, the CEO of Ooooby, says of Delivery Biz Pro, “We’ve been deeply impressed by the fantastic improvements DBP has brought to our customer experience as well as the operational efficiencies the software brings. Our customers have been raving about the new shopping interface and we saw an instant increase in average transaction values by over 10%. The DBP team has been an absolute delight to work with and we’re very excited about applying more of the powerful features that DBP offers!”

While Ooooby grew their business through a dream and hard work, our produce management software has been an important tool and we are excited to continue our relationship with Ooooby. They have plans to scale their business using the unique features that DBP can offer.

Today, we’d like to share another success story with you! This time, we’re going to be talking about Farm to People, a digital farmer’s market operating out of Brooklyn, New York.

Locally Grown, Thoughtfully Delivered

Farm to People specializes in local, organic foods ranging from fresh fruits and veggies to meat, seafood, eggs, and dairy. They currently deliver fresh produce in the highly competitive market of Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens. In an area where people need convenience to get through their busy days, how does Farm to People beat out the competition? 

It comes down to their commitment to excellence and our customizable produce delivery software. Their fruits and veggies come from farms that are family-run, non-GMO, and dedicated to sustaining the environment. Their meat, dairy, and eggs come from animals that are treated humanely, never caged, free-range, antibiotic-free, and growth hormone-free. Their seafood is sustainably sourced and come from fishermen and women who are dedicated to improving fishing practices and increasing positive change for threatened species. In short, their products are top-tier and their customers never have to guess about the sustainability or safety of their products. They just know that the boxes of fresh food they receive are good for them and good for the environment. 

Farm to People actually goes even further than just offering fresh food to their customers. Their website also includes a large and easily navigable recipe database that shows customers how to use their produce to make healthy and delicious meals. 

With all of that amazing food, how do they get it to the dense population of major New York City boroughs? That’s where we come in. 

Delivery Biz Pro’s customizable produce management software helps CSAs and digital farmer’s markets have a seamless experience from the supplier to the delivery driver to the customer, and every role in between.

Michael Robinox, Co-Founder of Farm to People, says of Delivery Biz Pro, “We are now able to offer 200 different handmade foods and expect that number to grow to 400 by June. Without the ability to customize, forecast and manage inventory on DBP, we couldn’t do it… We love that our customers are kept in the loop and know the minute their packages have been delivered. That kind of detail helps us build a trust that’s very difficult to earn.”

Our produce delivery software doesn’t just generate routes for you from a list of addresses. It gives you the opportunity to give your customers the absolute best service from the second they enter your website. With a user-friendly website, safe payment options, automated customer alerts, and so many more amazing features, you and your customers have what you need for a positive and successful interaction.

That said, one of the biggest industries we serve is the fresh meat and dairy delivery industry which is growing every day. Customers want to know where their meat is coming from. They want to know that the milk they give their children is as pure as possible. Companies like Eketahuna Country Meats makes it easy. 

Optimizing Business With Our Meat & Dairy Software

Eketahuna Country Meats is a meat and dairy delivery business in New Zealand. They began eight years ago as a family with three young children. Like many people, they wanted to feed their children a diet that is high in quality and as low in processed foods as possible. So, they started producing their own meat. Then, they started offering their products to other families and their business continued to grow. 

They specialize in sustainably raised beef, lamb, and pork products along with fresh milk in glass bottles that are delivered right to the doors of their customers. Their products are entirely free of hormones, antibiotics, and GMOs. Because the company was founded by parents of young children, they pull on the heartstrings of other families looking to feed their children the best products possible. 

Meat And Dairy Management Software Helps Keep Things Fresh

Steve Olds, the founder of Eketahuna Country Meats, says they have benefited greatly from partnering with Delivery Biz Pro. He says, “We have been able to expand product volume while improving speed and range of delivery. For perishable items like fresh meat and milk, it’s critical to reach our customers in a timely, accurate fashion and DBP has simplified the process dramatically.”

With the Delivery Biz Pro dairy management software, Eketahuna Country Farms has a beautifully designed website that shows their customers exactly what they can offer them. The meat and dairy software makes it easy to run their business and automatically generates delivery driver routes, sends updates to customers on their orders, and much more. 

While Eketahuna Country Farms originally sold products only from their own 300-acre farm, they now partner with other local farmers. Not only does this bring those small, sustainable farmers business, but it also expands the types and quantities of products they can offer their customers.

By providing a service that utilizes small farmers in the area, residents can support local agriculture and those farmers don’t have to spend their resources hunting down customers. It’s a win-win-win for Skarsgard, their members, and the producers. 

More Profit, More Local Farmers, Less Work

The owner of Skarsgard Farms, Monte Skarsgard, says, “We use Delivery Biz Pro across the entire state of New Mexico to deliver 275 SKUs from micro-producers, ranging from strawberries to eggs to steak…Most of these producers are far too small to get shelf space at Whole Foods or a traditional grocer.”

On the benefits of using our CSA management software for their service, Skarsgard Farms mentions that DBP does the work of “four or five” administrative assistants while eliminating human error from the process. 

Bigger Than Just A Routing Software

DBP doesn’t simply serve as their delivery routing software, though. They also utilize DBP’s data collection capabilities to target specific customers. Because placing an order requires an email address, anyone who has ordered tomatoes, for example, will be placed into a category where they can later be retargeted with an email announcing a fresh harvest of heirloom tomatoes. 

These types of functions from our CSA software have allowed businesses like Skarsgard Farms to optimize their marketing, reach and keep more customers, and support other small businesses along the way. 

Skarsgard Farms has also found that they benefit from the automated routing features of their CSA software. The delivery routing software in our product can identify the most profitable routes so that the farm can determine where to focus their marketing efforts. 

Playing To The Market

As we mentioned above, Skarsgard Farms operates out of New Mexico, a state that is not known for producing a plethora and variety of produce year-round due to its desert climate. This provides a market area in which residents want fresh, colorful, local, and organic fruits and veggies. 

The Skarsgard Farms website addresses this, saying, “We recognize that New Mexico is not an ideal point on the map to produce food year-round, so we partner with growers in neighboring states in addition to New Mexico to fill the void in diversity and availability of produce here in the Land of Enchantment. This turns our community into a regional community, inclusive of New Mexico, Arizona, California, Colorado, and Mexico so that our members can receive amazing, Certified Organic produce all year long instead of being limited by the seasonality of our local area.”

Grow Your CSA With Delivery Biz Pro

Skarsgard Farms is a unique business that provides a CSA-type service that combines the produce and products of farms across multiple states. Whether you’re a multi-state service like Skarsgard or you run a small CSA farm, our software can help you grow your business.

Our CSA software allows you to focus on providing your members with high-quality, diverse products without having to worry about logistics. From intuitive route planning to an integrated website, payment, and ordering system, you can take your CSA further without having to employ a handful of assistants and an IT team. We handle that for you, so you can help your community thrive with fresh, local food.

A Special Client For Delivery Biz Pro

We are proud to say that South Mountain Creamery (SMC) was Delivery Biz Pro’s second client ever and have been using our home delivery software for eleven years. They truly represent what our mission is here at DBP, which is to help small delivery businesses thrive. 

From Spreadsheets To Customizable Software

SMC was founded in 2001 with a goal to “bring back the milkman” by providing local residents with glass milk bottle delivery. When they began their journey, they were relying on a manually updated Excel spreadsheet to track orders and manage deliveries. Now, with our dairy management software, their business runs smoothly, delivering farm-fresh milk, butter, yogurt, and ice cream to residents in a 70-mile radius. 

As they have found success, SMC has added additional products from other local farmers. They now give their customers the option to add fresh eggs, meat, bread, and produce to their orders. Everything is locally sourced, yet customers have the ease of using only one website to place and manage their delivery orders. 

The Bread And Butter Of A Successful Business

A good dairy management software can help a business deliver the goods, but the real driving force behind South Mountain Creamery’s success is rooted deep within their business model. SMC says it best on their website: 

“Our cows are milked 50 yards away from our production plant. Within 12 hours, the milk is bottled or made into yogurt, cream, butter, sour cream, or ice cream. The incredible flavor and the nutritional value of our dairy products can be attributed to the freshness of the milk and the comfort of our cows. Products like yogurt and ice cream are hand-crafted, recipes of our own making and made fresh for you.”

Customers are welcome to visit their dairy farm any time to see how the magic happens. There, they will find happy cows grazing opening in the pasture. In addition to grass, the cows are fed crops that SMC grows themselves. The owners of South Mountain Creamery, along with the 75 men and women they employ, are perfect examples of how an amazing product combined with an intuitive delivery management software and paired with excellent customer service can help a local farm thrive. 

Optimize Your Dairy Delivery Business

All over the world, people are going back to home milk deliveries. Not only for the convenience, but also so that they can know where their milk and other farm products are coming from. It feels good to support the local economy, and it feels even better to know the path that your dairy has taken from the cow to the finished product. 

If you own a local dairy or farm and want to break into the delivery business like South Mountain Creamery, reach out to Delivery Biz Pro. Our dairy delivery software is designed to meet the needs of your business whether you simply sell milk or you provide as many local products as SMC does.
