What is Buying Group and What is Group Goodness
WHAT IS A BUYING GROUP?
A buying group is a group of people who have come together to form a group in order to access savings. Collectively, the Buying Group can access wholesale pricing.
WHY WE LOVE BUYING GROUPS
The community spirit, being able to offer good food at affordable prices, the dedication to sustainability and unexpected friendships that can form from the collaboration process. We offer a diverse range of over 1,000 products including pantry favourites, snacking, health, home and more. Buying groups are a way for anyone, in any community to access healthy food. We have groups from 2 people all the way up to 250 people who are all here for different reasons.
WHAT IS GROUP GOODNESS?
Group Goodness is the dedicated buying group web platform we have developed to help buying groups of any size purchase together easily and quickly.
There are two types of roles within a buying group, an administrator and a group member.
Administrators are the people who sign up for the account OR they can be assigned by another administrator. They can see the whole order and all past order history for the group. They are the people that open orders, let everyone know what is happening and once everyone is finished ordering - send the order to Honest to Goodness through the platform.
Group members are everybody else, that is, members of the Group. Each member can only see their part of any current or past order.
