Let’s go fresh Lagos; Harriet and Claire’s

It’s becoming hard these days as a caterer, customers don’t understand why we charge them so high. I think they might have forgotten that just last month, a basket of tomatoes rose up to N40,000 and after the stress and hassle of combing through the market for hours on end searching for prices a little lower than that, I cannot even guarantee the fullness of the basket or the freshness of the produce.


It’s become hard to create the variations of dishes as I used to, the prices are too high and the produce too scarce.  
I decided to dig deep into the causes and research showed me that the journey of the produce from the farm to my dear wholesale market takes about 5-6 days, with many middle men and money changing hands at each stop and some produce getting rotten along the way.  I found out the cost of the rotten produce was borne by me as the sellers just remove the rotten produce and repack. So I get lower quantity for higher price.

However, after confiding in my friend, my luck has totally changed. She told me about how Harriet & Claire’s makes things easier for her as a busy working mother. She explained how all the produce is fresh, carefully packaged and delivered to her doorstep anytime she wants.  I was a little doubtful that they could meet my demand as I buy in large quantities but I gave it a try and now I’m able to deliver the best tasting food at the cheapest rates. Bye bye to broken tomatoes, to half-filled baskets, long tiresome journeys to the market and welcome to Harriet and Claire’s.


Harriet and Claire’s believes that everyone has a right to be healthy.  Our vision is to build a dependable and effective fresh-produce market culture that is cheap and affordable, both locally and internationally. Delivering fresh handpicked food produce from farm to pot while encouraging and exposing people to consume only the highest quality.

 

At Harriet and Claire’s, we pick, package and supply fresh produce including tomatoes, sweet and hot peppers, onions, potatoes, ginger, garlic, plantains, beetroot among  others for wholesale, retail, and food service. We work with several growers/suppliers and one of our partnerships is with NEXT FARM. Food safety is a top priority ingrained in our culture.

  3. From the little I've browsed on the site, there's too much issues. Firstly, why are their products 1 naira? And the description for plantain is not even in English. If you're not ready for online business, don't market it mbok.
