New Software in the Works

The Board is pleased to announce that Six Rivers Market will soon be converting to a new software! If you are familiar with the current system, you know it works, but it's definitely quirky! The new system will be much more fluid, intuitive, and all-around just easier to use. It should be a clean transition, with all data converted to the new system before we make the new system live. We'll keep you posted on any changes that will affect customers and/or producers directly. In the meantime, here are the highlights of the Local Food Marketplace software which we'll be converting to:
  • Easy to navigate with product menu available throughout the system
  • Traditional shopping cart system, with ability to add multiple quantities when adding items to cart.
  • Product reviews can be made by each product.
  • No log in required until checking out!
  • Suggested items shown according to what's in the shopping cart.
  • Easy checkout with credit card (or still pay via check or cash upon delivery).
  • System automatically sends reminders to only the consumers and producers who have orders.
  • Ongoing technical support and upgrades.
  • Saves significant management costs.
