PROCUREMENT

Agriculture project procurement, run on a supplier-neutral basis

SeedMatchGroup converts a project brief into a structured RFQ, validates and organises it, manages outreach to suitable independent suppliers, and presents any technical and commercial responses through the platform — without selling equipment or taking a supplier's side.

SeedMatchGroup helps buyers source greenhouse equipment, agricultural seeds, fertilizers, irrigation systems, pumps, solar systems, drones, cooling systems and complete agriculture project suppliers worldwide.

SeedMatchGroup is supplier-neutral and helps buyers compare greenhouse, seed, fertilizer, irrigation and agriculture project suppliers worldwide. It does not manufacture, distribute or sell equipment or inputs.

Is SeedMatchGroup a supplier or a supplier-neutral procurement platform?

SeedMatchGroup is a supplier-neutral procurement platform. It does not manufacture, distribute or sell equipment or inputs, act as an EPC contractor or lend money. It validates and organises briefs and RFQs, manages suitable supplier outreach, and presents organised responses through the platform so the buyer can decide.

Advising on a commercial agriculture project?

Project advisors and agriculture EPC consultants send us one project scope and we return supplier options, an RFQ pack, a comparable quote sheet and financing direction — unbranded if you want to present it as your own work.

Frequently asked questions

Submit a project brief; a sourcing specialist reviews it and clarifies technical gaps; the brief becomes a structured RFQ; qualified independent suppliers are identified and invited; responses are returned in a normalised comparison; where relevant, independent financing institutions are introduced. No supplier is contacted before the brief is reviewed and nothing is binding.

There is no platform fee for buyers on standard sourcing services. Submitting a brief, receiving an RFQ structure and receiving a supplier comparison carry no charge.

Which packages should the request cover?

Select every package you want included. Anything left unselected is treated as outside the scope, and we will flag it as a possible gap between suppliers. This is equipment and works only — recurring fertilizer supply is requested separately.
