PLACING AN ORDER
Commercial Kitchens will place orders for Fresh Produce via the Tawi Platform.
Upon receiving the orders, Tawi will aggregate the day’s order and route them to different Farmers for supply of Fresh Produce to fulfil demand.
We will notify you by message to your registered mobile number and/or via phone call of any Fresh Produce orders allocated to you for supply and the same will be picked up on the same day of notification.
You consent to supplying in full, the Fresh Produce orders allocated to you based on harvest information updated by you on the Tawi Platform from time to time. Failure to supply Fresh Produce orders allocated to you and/or failure to update Fresh Produce details on the Tawi Platform may lead to your deregistration from the Tawi Platform.
COLLECTION OF FRESH PRODUCE
Tawi will collect Fresh Produce ordered from you at the farmgate using Tawi’s owned or leased Trucks at no extra cost to you.
Our Fresh Produce Collection Trucks may be accompanied by a collection executive (Tawi Staff) or may only have the driver who has been briefed on Tawi’s quality specifications. Where the Trucks collecting Fresh Produce from your farm are not accompanied by a collection executive, we will endeavour to brief you beforehand on our quality specifications and exact collection time to inform the harvest timing.
The farmer is responsible for the proper, timely and safe harvesting of Fresh Produce ordered by Tawi. Tawi shall not accept any liabilities for any product damages or rejections at this level.
The farmer is responsible for ensuring that they harvest Fresh Produce that meets Tawi’s and CK’s quality specifications as may be communicated to the farmer from time to time.
Fresh Produce will only be loaded onto Tawi Trucks at farmgate upon passing the primary quality control check.
Once collected by Tawi Trucks, Fresh Produce will be delivered to Tawi’s fulfilment centre for sorting, grading, and packaging before delivery to the Commercial Kitchens.
