Discover the benefits of running a healthy food online store on Agrojusto

There's a lot of talk about technology being here to stay. Brick-and-mortar businesses have gradually moved into the digital world, and some have even built a bigger presence there with a healthy food online store.

In this article we'll explain why your food business needs to go digital and how to make your online store a success without losing your mind.

Save time and manage your healthy food store more efficiently

If you have a physical healthy food store and have started selling online without an online store, you've probably made the following decisions:

• Sending catalogs over WhatsApp
• Tracking your stock and orders in an Excel spreadsheet
• Organizing deliveries
• Constantly updating prices in your catalog… and countless other things.

And yet you've slipped up: you've sent an order to the wrong customer, charged too much or too little, or couldn't get to all your customers' messages.

Having a healthy food online store makes all this, and much more, easier. With an Agrojusto online store you can upload your products in bulk. You stop wasting time sending updated catalogs, and if you have customers who prefer dealing with you directly on WhatsApp, you can simply send them the store link.

You can also use a route sheet that helps you organize your deliveries efficiently, taking shorter routes and updating the status of each delivery (on the way, delivered, or pending) while choosing your own courier.

How can you organize deliveries?

Inside the platform you'll find the «Invite a courier» section, where the courier downloads the Agrojusto app and can then update the order status, as mentioned above.

Here you're free to choose the delivery terms that best suit your business.

Another time-saving benefit: no more looking up addresses, phone numbers, or routes.

With these features you save time, money, and energy that you can put into new resources and products for your store and into better communication, which, let's be honest, is where an entrepreneur should be investing when other tasks can be delegated.

Want to hear the best part? Stores are FREE forever, with NO COMMISSIONS on sales. But if you'd like, you can upgrade to a professional plan with MORE FEATURES and NO COMMISSIONS.

Ongoing support

Does the thought of handling all this on your own overwhelm you? Well, you won't have to.

At Agrojusto you'll find free resources for users on communication and marketing, food safety requirements, ideas for your social media, practical tips to boost your sales, and more.

You'll find these resources in both the basic and professional plans, but fair warning: we're preparing more and more resources for the professional plan.

You get support via WhatsApp, and no, it's not a bot answering you: we reply personally.

Benefits for your customers

In your online store you can set up custom banners and discount coupons for your customers whenever you want.

You don't have to offer discounts only on dates like Hot Sale: you can create your own special dates and get your customers to choose you and recommend you.

They'll no longer have to download PDF catalogs, images, or anything like that, which will save them a big headache. They can also add your store to their home screen without downloading an app. So whenever they need to buy something, they just tap the icon on their home screen and they'll be taken straight to your online store.

Suppliers just a click away

Access a wholesale marketplace where you can find suppliers of fresh and processed products for your healthy food store, sorted by location.

Want to sell wholesale? Of course you can do that too. You can run a retail store for end consumers and, at the same time, become a distributor for other stores through the Agrojusto Marketplace.

You too can be like them and have your own healthy food store

Meet Brian from Mercadillo de Boedo. His market's digital transformation began with sending Google Forms to his customers, who filled in their orders there. The problem was that it was manual work that took a lot of time and mental energy.

They then hired a company to build their store on WordPress. But along the way he ran into certain difficulties, such as the store's maintenance costs, browsing speed, and usability for his customers.

In his own words, it was a period when his business lost time, money, and customers. When he came across the Agrojusto platform, he found a solution to organize his orders, deliveries, and payments, and his customers got used to the store very quickly.
