Hubbuffate
Hubbuffate - the food hub that generates value
Scheda del progetto
Società cooperativa sociale Exeat
The Hubbuffate project intends to prototype a digital platform for agricultural companies that practice social agriculture to promote digitalization and competitiveness of small companies that practice it, generating a greater social, economic and cultural impact in the communities of reference resulting from the development of these small companies. The platform will be composed of three sections:
- e-commerce,
- events
- services.
Each social agricultural company will be able to insert its products and services without intermediation, to acquire equal visibility online. Through the application of the blockchain, each participating entity will have the opportunity to become part of the governance of the “Hubbuffate” brand. In this way, the benefits and risks of the network will be shared among all participants thanks to a decentralized administrative management, based on cooperation.

The main challenge that the Hubbuffate project faces is to create a network between agricultural companies in the Piedmont area, part of the NODES ecosystem. Through the implementation of the platform prototype, it is possible to create networking between local entities, in a widespread manner, involving especially micro and small companies in the agricultural sector, in order to promote the creation of a commercial platform dedicated to social agriculture that operates throughout the national territory.
The innovative potential of the Hubbuffate platform consists in increasing the competitive value of SMEs that do social agriculture in the national territory. Thanks to the platform, some companies in the social agriculture network can create a page dedicated to their activities, services and products, creating a direct relationship between producer and consumer
The Hubbuffate project aims to create the conditions to guarantee small social farms a competitive advantage in their specific, growing and sustainable business. The project intends to enhance local and sustainable products, ensuring a high level of quality, respecting the environment and the natural resources of the territory. Compared to the current market, the offer of the Hubbuffate network is accessible to a large group of consumers, also residing in internal and rural areas. In this way, it is possible to promote sustainable lifestyles and consumption.
