Is this you?

If two or more of these sound familiar, this service was built for you.

You sell to the middleman at his price, because he is the only one who comes.
A serious buyer came to look, did not come back, and nobody knows why.
You cannot promise the same quantity or the same quality every month.
Buyers ask for paperwork you do not know how to produce.
You do not know what a fair price for your product actually is.

What you get

An honest assessment of which kind of buyer your product is ready for
A list of buyers, processors and platforms that match what you produce
The quality gaps to close before approaching them
The paperwork and records buyers ask for, prepared in advance
Price negotiation preparation — your costs, the market range, and your walk-away price
Contract support — what to agree to and what not to

How it works

What happens after you press the button.

You apply and we call

We ask what you produce, how much a season, and who you sell to today.

Readiness

We check your product, volume, consistency and records against what buyers actually require. Sometimes the answer is "not yet", and we will say so.

Closing the gaps

Quality, packaging, records and paperwork. This is most of the work, and it is the part that decides whether a buyer comes back.
ខែទី ២–៤ · months 2–4
Introductions and negotiation

We approach buyers that fit, prepare you for the meeting, and sit with you in the negotiation. Buyers decide for themselves — nobody can promise on their behalf.

Is this the right fit?

This is for you if

You produce enough, consistently enough, to supply a serious buyer
Members or producers will change how they work if quality requires it
You can wait three to six months — buyer relationships do not happen faster
You will keep records, even though it is extra work

This is not for you if

The cooperative does not yet run smoothly — a buyer will see that before you do Start here instead →
The problem is governance and finance rather than market access Start here instead →
You need to sell this season — this work is not that fast
You want a guaranteed price or buyer — nobody can guarantee a third party

What changes

Selling to whoever turns up

A list of buyers that match what you actually produce

Taking the price offered

Knowing your costs, the market range, and the point where you walk away

Buyers who look and disappear

Knowing what put them off, and having fixed it

Who delivers it

A Certified Bodhi Advisor

Common questions

Will you find us a buyer?

We approach buyers that fit what you produce, prepare you for the meeting, and sit with you in the negotiation. What we cannot do is promise on a buyer's behalf. Be careful of anyone who does. What we control is whether you are ready when a buyer looks.

What if you tell us we are not ready?

That is a possible outcome and one of the more valuable ones. Bringing a serious buyer to a supplier who is not ready damages that relationship for years. We will tell you which gaps to close first.

What decides $400 or $800?

The product, how many producers are involved, how far you are from the standard buyers require, and whether the target is domestic or export. We agree it after the first call.

We produce a small volume. Is that too small?

It depends on the buyer. Some small processors and specialist buyers want modest volume with consistent quality. Part of the early work is matching you to the right kind of buyer, rather than trying to make you big enough for the wrong one.

Which crops do you work with?

Rice, pepper, cashew and honey are what this service was built around. If you produce something else, apply anyway and we will tell you plainly whether we have an advisor who knows that chain.

If it turns out not to be a fit
Applying costs nothing and commits you to nothing. We call you first, and if this service is not right for your business we will say so and point you somewhere better — including somewhere free. No money moves before you have spoken to a person.

Not sure you are buyer-ready?

The cooperative diagnosis measures market access and sales alongside production and quality, among the six areas. It costs less, and it will tell you whether market work is the right next step.
