With Direct bidding, you can set the optimum price for your product and spend less time negotiating.
On this page, we will explain how it works step by step:
Putting your supply online
You can easily offer batches for Direct bidding from your stock in Floriday.
Go to Supply > Stock and select the stock location.
Select the batch that you want to offer and click on Supply > Direct bidding.
Select the delivery location. You can then enter the number of load carriers or layers, the asking price per piece and optionally the bid from price and the price at which the bid may be automatically accepted.
Once this has been completed to your satisfaction, click on Offer, after which this batch will be visible to buyers under Direct bidding. Buyers have until 3 PM to place a bid.

Promote the offer
In Floriday, you can very easily draw attention to the offer you are offering in Direct Bidding on the buyer's timeline.
Go to Supply > Direct Bidding and click on the megaphone at the bottom of the page.
Place a text for the message and click Post. In this way, you can make the buyer extra aware that a lot has been offered through Direct Bidding.
Accepting bids
Go to Supply > Direct bidding and view the bids that buyers have placed.
Next to each batch offered, you can see the bids made by buyers. The bids are listed in order of height and the colour indicates the extent to which the bid corresponds to the asking price. Bids can be made until 3 PM at the latest. As a grower, you have until 3:15 PM to accept a bid.
If the buyer immediately offers the asking price, or if the "auto accept" price is entered, the offer is automatically accepted. If the buyer offers below the asking price, you can accept the offer by clicking on the offer.
You can then choose whether to accept this bid and lower the price for any other bidders, or not. Clicking Save accepts the bid.
