Invest in a LOCAL food industry for social & monetary profit

This is your great chance to invest in the LOCAL food industry. Where you can get great food, and support your local community. If all goes well, you get regular dividend payouts, and know you have helped build a better, more sustainable, food industry.

A social and monetary investment for as little as £30.

We have been building BigBarn ever since I saw the onions we grew on the farm and sold to a middleman for £130/tonne on the Tesco shelf for the equivalent of £850/tonne. I realised if farmers could sell locally they could undercut supermarkets.

The great news is that thousands are. And there are already millions of people changing to shopping locally for fresher, better, cheaper food.

BigBarn is the enabler and catalyst for this change and you can join, to help make the change, and a profit! And be proud you did!

Please note that the more people who switch to local the more local producers are encouraged to grow a wider range of products, and for flavour, rather than shelf life. (As supermarket buyers demand). People take an active interest in local food and local economies get a massive boost.

So how will BigBarn make the change and why should you invest?

We have been around for 10 years and have everything in place to build the local food industry.

We have our local food map with over 7,000 icons representing local producers.

We have our Amazon type MarketPlace where 415 producers, on our map, have added over 9,000 products. Anyone can set up an account, buy from as many producers as they want and pay once at the end.

We supply our map and MarketPlace to 85 other websites to display within their pages and earn from advertising around our map and commission from sales in MarketPlace.

We can set up special discount code pages for our partner websites to give their members a reward like this. 12 partner websites have these pages reaching 3m people by Christmas.

Every business on our map can update their details and add offers whenever they want using a password. They can also add a video to tell their story and promote they are cheaper. A fantastic way to encourage people to break their supermarket habit.

We now need to spread the word through marketing and getting our map and MarketPlace on more websites. As we do, more businesses will join our map and pay to be there, increasing our income, to be returned to shareholders.

You can invest to share in this income, and help spread the word by telling your friends about BigBarn, as well as local producers and shops about joining the map and/or MarketPlace.
