With Direct Bidding, buyers and growers can easily trade with each other through bidding. Buyers can buy products from growers directly by bidding the asking price or by making a counter bid. If the bid is lower, the deal is closed once the grower accepts the highest bid.
A grower offers products at an asking price that all buyers on Floriday can bid on. Buyers can buy directly at this asking price or make a counterbid until 12:00 (CET/CEST). A grower can accept a counter bid until 12:15 (CET/CEST) and close the deal by adjusting his asking price. Producten worden de volgende dag tussen 5:30 en 6:00 (CET/CEST) afgeleverd op de aangeven afleverlocatie. Products are delivered the next day between 5:30 and 6:00 (CET/CEST) at the indicated delivery location.

In April, the first group of growers started using Direct Bidding in the Floriday screens. They were the first to be able to use this functionality. This resulted in valuable feedback and points of improvement from growers and buyers. New functions were developed and added to Direct Bidding, such as a promotion button and notifications for growers and buyers.
Since 16 May, Direct Bidding is available to all growers and buyers. Would you like to start using Direct Bidding? In our Helpcenter, you will find a step-by-step explanation of how Direct Bidding works and answers to frequently asked questions.
