Built for your type of business
What kind of business are you?
Select your type to see the tools and setup options most relevant to you.
From your kitchen to your customers — with the right setup for every channel you sell through.
Online ordering & preorder form
Take orders for pickup or delivery without a full ecommerce build. Works for weekly batches, seasonal specials, and made-to-order products.
Product catalog & storefront
A clean page for what you make — pricing, photos, and how to order. Simple to update, easy to share in your bio or at a market.
Pickup scheduling
Manage pickup windows and reduce back-and-forth. Automated reminders cut no-shows and "what time can I come?" messages.
Wholesale order sheet
A structured form for café, restaurant, and retail buyers to place regular orders. Easy to update, easy for buyers to use.
Payment setup (Stripe or Square)
Accept online payment, send invoice links, or set up a simple checkout — configured around how you actually get paid.
AI product descriptions
Transform a recipe note or ingredient list into polished product copy for your website, market table, or wholesale catalog — fast.
Commercial kitchen access
Need licensed space? Find shared and rental kitchens near you through the FreshFind kitchen finder.
FreshFind directory listing
Get found by local shoppers, market managers looking for vendors, and wholesale buyers seeking local producers.
FreshFind has helped more than 1,000 food and local-commerce businesses — farms, food makers, specialty shops, and co-ops — get online and keep selling across North America, Europe, and Latin America.

Who you’re working with
Built by people who know local food
FreshFind was founded in Toronto in 2020, built across two COVID-19 relief hackathons that spring with support from the teams at Techstars and the DMZ. We started in the Greater Toronto Area and grew from there — our team has since worked with more than 1,000 local food businesses across North America, Europe, and Latin America: farms, markets, food makers, co-ops, distributors, and more.
We’ve been recognised as Canada’s Best Small Business eCommerce Platform by the Canadian Business Awards. We know what local food businesses need because we’ve needed it ourselves — we’ve run local food businesses and started our own. The tools we build are the ones we wished we’d had.
We also work with a collective of domain partners to bring current tooling across AI, automation, commerce, and operations to our clients. Every project is scoped and quoted before you commit. No surprises.
Pricing
