Go-to-market is route-based: build dense delivery loops first, then fill them with repeat weekly orders
600 Buyers mapped in catchment
Marketing budget is modest (R180,000 a year): vehicle livery, tray labels, trader starter packs and local radio. The product is sold by the driver, not by advertising.
380 Contacted and sampled
250 Trial order placed
Launch (months 1–4)
One house in lay: farm-gate shop, Potchefstroom and Ikageng routes, two anchor wholesalers.
190 Active accounts
Ramp-up (months 5–9)
Klerksdorp–Jouberton and Carletonville–Khutsong routes; hospitality and NWU catering contracts.
Scale (months 10–24)
Parys and Vaal routes; independent supermarket listings with barcoded NWES packs.
165 Weekly repeat buyers
Pricing
Weekly price list pegged to the regional wholesale tray price; volume tiers for 20+ and 100+ trays.
Twelve-month account funnel (planning targets). Conversion of 32% from mapped buyer to active account reflects sampling and delivery to the door.
Retention and upsell
Fixed delivery days, returnable crates, WhatsApp ordering, credit for breakages; seconds and manure sold to the same buyers.
