Why is this service important?

Food waste is a huge global problem. In Nigeria and Africa, about 60% of all food cultivated annually gets wasted before they can get to the people who need them. We are talking about enough food to feed over 300 million hungry people in the Continent, costing farmers billions of dollars in annual revenue, and perpetuating the cycle of poverty.

Despite this enormous waste, Hotels, Eateries, Food Processors, Manufacturers, Resellers, and other businesses and bulk buyers of farm produce still struggle to get the produce they need to power their businesses where and when they need them, highlighting how broken the supply chain in Nigeria and Africa is.

It is important to point out that primary food production in Nigeria is worth an approximate $15 billion (US Dept of Commerce), meaning that 60% of this value going to waste is simply unacceptable.

To solve this problem, we built a web platform at www.fairwayslogist.com that enables farmers post pictures and prices of their produce and sell directly to buyers anywhere in the country. This also means that buyers can visit the platform and buy directly from farmers in any part of the country and have the produce delivered to them in 1-2 days.

Elimination of food waste means that food prices are impacted overtime for millions of people.

How to order our agricultural products

Easy steps

How it works
To buy or sell on the Fairways Logistics platform, manual registration is required either as a Farmer partner(Farmer Registration) or a Consumer/ Off-taker partner( User Registration).

Once payment is completed for a listed produce, it is picked up from the farmer by our logistics partners and delivered to the collection point selected by the buyer, or to a user-defined location.

Delivery to user-defined locations attract additional delivery costs.

For quality assurance, payments are not remitted to the farmer partner till the goods are delivered and confirmed.

The farmer makes no payments whatsoever to our logistic sector for delivery, Fairways Logistics handles that.

All goods purchased and transported through the platform are insured by Guinea Insurance PLC, the insurance company to our logistics and delivery sector.

10 Modern food storage technology you need to know

Crop storage is essential to preserve the quality of harvested crops and reduce post-harvest losses. With Nigeria’s agriculture industry growing, modern storage technologies are becoming more important to ensure the sustainability and profitability of farming. Here are 10 technological devices tailored for the storage of 10 different crops in Nigeria:

1. Hermetic Storage Bags (For Maize)

Hermetic storage bags, such as Purdue Improved Crop Storage (PICS) bags, are used to store maize. These airtight bags prevent the entry of oxygen and insects, preserving the grain for long periods without the need for chemical treatments. The bags help in preventing moisture buildup and controlling pests, making them ideal for maize storage.

2. Cold Storage Units (For Tomatoes)

Tomatoes are highly perishable and require cool environments for storage. Cold storage units equipped with temperature and humidity control are used to extend the shelf life of tomatoes. These units maintain optimal temperatures, delaying ripening and reducing spoilage, especially in commercial farming.

3. Metal Silos (For Sorghum/Rice)

Metal silos are airtight structures designed to store grains like rice and sorghum. They protect the grains from pests, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. Metal silos come in various sizes and are particularly suitable for smallholder farmers, as they provide effective long-term storage solutions.

4. Solar-Powered Cold Rooms (For Fruits)

For storing fruits like mangoes, solar-powered cold rooms are becoming popular. These cold rooms use solar energy to power refrigeration units, making them environmentally friendly and cost-effective in rural areas where electricity may be unstable. They maintain low temperatures, keeping fruits fresh and reducing spoilage.

5. GrainPro Cocoon (For Rice)

GrainPro Cocoons are specialized hermetic storage devices that are highly durable and airtight. They are suitable for storing rice, protecting it from pests, humidity, and mold. These cocoons are particularly useful in regions with high humidity, where rice is susceptible to rapid spoilage.

6. Refrigerated Containers (For Potatoes)

Potatoes require specific temperature conditions to avoid sprouting and rotting during storage. Refrigerated containers, often equipped with controlled atmosphere technology, are used to store potatoes. These containers maintain low oxygen levels and stable temperatures, preserving the quality of the tubers for months.

7. Modified Atmosphere Storage (For Bananas)

Bananas require controlled environments for long-term storage. Modified Atmosphere Storage (MAS) technology adjusts the levels of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen within the storage unit to slow down the ripening process. This technology helps keep bananas fresh during transportation and storage.

8. Evaporative Coolers (For Onions)

Evaporative coolers are low-cost devices that use the natural process of evaporation to reduce the temperature inside the storage unit. They are ideal for storing onions, which require a cool and dry environment to prevent spoilage. The coolers are energy-efficient and can be used in areas with limited access to electricity.

9. Controlled Atmosphere Storage (For Apples)

Controlled Atmosphere Storage (CAS) is used to store apples by regulating oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen levels within the storage space. This advance technology helps maintain freshness and extends the shelf life of apples, making it ideal for commercial producers.

9. Underground Storage Cellars – Yams

Underground storage cellars are traditional storage facilities adapted with modern insulation techniques. Yams are stored in these cool, humid conditions, which help slow down sprouting and dehydration, preserving the yams for months.

10. Vacuum-Sealed Packaging – Beans

Vacuum-sealed packaging removes air from storage bags, creating an anaerobic environment that is unfavorable to pests and mold. This method is highly effective for beans, as it preserves their freshness and prevents damage from insects and moisture.
