- 8. Real World Problems In Developed Countries U.S. consumers who live in the suburbs live approximately equidistant from the nearest metropolitan city and the nearest rural, farming area. Many suburbanites have the luxury of driving to multiple retail grocers within close proximity to their homes, but sometimes internal retail power outages cause these stores to shut down until the power is restored and the next shipping truck arrives to unload new stock. Also, more often than not items are out of stock, are sold in limited quantities, available while quantities last, or are expired stock is sitting on the shelves and there are few store employees to assist when questions arise. Consequently, demand for locally grown agricultural products is at an all time high. COVID-19 and consumer demand caused a massive shift in supply chain strategies with e-commerce becoming the dominant channel. Similar situations are faced by other developed economies. In Developing Countries According to the 2021 reports, over 70% of India’s 1.38 billion people still depend primarily on agriculture for their livelihood. Though the sector accounts for only about 20% of the country’s economic output. That reliance increased after the coronavirus pandemic which badly struck the urban economy and sent millions of labourers (unemployment) back to their villages. For years, debt and bankruptcies have been driving farmers to high rates of suicide. Also, India has 53 million unemployed people as of December 2021. Other developing countries are also facing the same or even worse issues.
- 9. SOLUTION
- 10. Quagrifresh is a one of a kind e-commerce platform (sustainable business model) as a effective and adaptive solution which bring value to the problems described. Our solution is a mixture of technological improvements/ advancements which improve access to fresh, healthier organic food while at the same time reducing the pressure on environmental resources and ecosystems by using concepts such as group buying which ensures low or zero carbon emission. Boosting economies by offering job opportunities to the unemployed population of a country. Also, improving supply chain transparency and tracebility. Overall, Quagrifresh will benefit everyone equally – Developing Country to the Developed Country. Solution Summary
- 11. Solution Statement Supply Chain Quagrifesh eliminates the need for suppliers and intermediaries delivering direct to the consumer as a near net-zero last-mile service. Job Opportunities The Quagrifresh ecommerce platform allows independent delivery drivers to register and schedule their neighborhood delivery transportation. Education The Quagrifresh data analytics feature will capture three Green House Gas (GHG) Protocol Corporate Value Chain Scope 3 upstream emissions categories (purchased goods and service, employee commuting, and upstream transportation and distribution) and one downstream Scope 3 emissions category (downstream transportation and distribution) allows farmers to view which neighborhoods order specific products. For the consumer, the blog section of our website will feature locally grown food content. Sustainable Solution Quagrifresh, a unique e-commerce technological platform, using home delivery as a distribution improvement to local agricultural production, data analytics as an educational tool for local farmers, and job opportunities for local delivery drivers to create a greener future. Scope 3 of the Green House Gas (GHG) emissions value chain focuses on emissions from, agriculture, transportation, consumption, and waste.
- 12. Solution In Developed Countries Quagrifresh is a community supported agricultural network that examines both farmer and consumer needs maximizing farmers profitability via a home distribution channel while simultaneously working backward to determine how to get inventory directly to the consumer at the cheapest delivery cost as an innovative U.S. cradle-to-consumer food supply chain management strategy. Our idea solution is providing endless possibilities for clean living right in the heart of the city for locally grown and sustainable eats right in the city because fresh produce is just a click away with Quagrifresh. In Developing Countries Quagrifresh will be a big hit among the farmers in India as we are providing them with a platform where they are allowed to sell their produce directly to the consumers by becoming sellers, making farming profitable specially for small farmers. They can easily earn their livelihoods from the comforts of their home. In turn, the consumers will get farm fresh healthy and organic products directly from the farm. Farmers will not have to go round for payment and settlement of disputes. They will get it instantly. Also, through our initiative of delivery service, many unemployed people will get job opportunities.
- 13. How the Solution Works? Quagrifresh specifically uses the group buying concept with lower prices which reduces emissions via delivery travel reduction. Famers register their products, product quality, and delivery dates on the Quagrifresh website. Then, the buyer decides what s/he wants to purchase from the farmer with the capability of viewing how many neighbors are purchasing from the same farmer on the same delivery date. Delivery begins with a fixed cost; however, with each additional neighborhood buyer the total delivery cost will be shared. For example, if the flat delivery fee is $100, one buyer would incur the total $100 delivery cost. If there are a minimum of 10 buyers within a 2-mile radius of the farmer, each buyer would pay a $10 delivery fee. Quagrifresh’s business model reduces delivery emissions as delivery drivers will create their routes based on neighborhood delivery and the buyer benefits from paying a lower delivery cost.

- 23. This is the real project made. But due to time constraints we are unable to connect every element of frontend to backend. So, for the demonstration purpose of the prototype (as the deadline approaches), we choose specific parts of the project to showcase (connecting backend) and add them to the website leaving others behind.

- 51. Our Story Tonya N. Jefferson, a US citizen, first came up with the concept for Quagrifresh. Her dream team took her six months to find. Tanisha Joshi, an Indian citizen, was the first to join the Grasslanders Network to lend her UI/UX frontend developer expertise. She carefully managed each task with her leadership abilities. Following that, Terrence Tay, a Singaporean technology consultant, joined the team and modified the initial concept by sharing his expert knowledge. Aaron Masuba, a Bangladeshi citizen, joined the team and contributed his creativity, giving the team a distinct brand name, pamphlet design, and flowcharts. Finally, Tanisha Joshi secured Raman Sharma, an Indian citizen, the team's tech lead who assisted in making this dream project a reality. We built Quagrifresh, a one-of-a-kind e-commerce platform for farmers, buyers, and independent delivery drivers, in just two weeks.
