The startup works on the B2B2C model the start-up connects end consumers to farmers through a community of resellers who handle the last-mile delivery of fresh produce. That's an interesting tweak indeed and could well work for this select segment as it provides both economic benefits (owing to group purchase) as well as employment benefits for the local economy. Not sure how different the specifics are from a distribution franchisee, though.
