Trading on Jangolo: The Perfect Match Between Supply and Demand

Trading — formerly known as Sourcing — is a service developed by the Jangolo teams and available through Jangolo Trade, the platform’s B2B marketplace. The principle: bring together all the offers and demands for agropastoral products in one place, and match the right offer with the right demand. For a producer as for a buyer, trading on Jangolo replaces weeks of prospecting with a single post.

A database and a matching space

The service is twofold by nature. It is first a database: every offer and demand (product, quantity, unit price, city) is listed and easy to browse, anywhere and anytime. It is also a matching space: a commercial environment to find partners and seal lasting deals, with no middlemen. The goal is simple: source and/or sell your product.

How does trading work?

Everything starts with posting a trade request: an offer (I sell) or a demand (I buy). The request triggers the search for potential matches among the listings published on the marketplace. The information provided (product, quantity, price, location) helps ensure both parties honour their commitments until the sale or purchase is finalised.

• Selling? Post an offer with product, quantity, price and city — interested buyers contact you directly.
• Buying? Post a demand or browse the available offers, filtered by product and city.
• Comparing? Unit prices displayed transparently give you a true view of the market.

A service open to everyone

Once reserved for premium members, trading is now directly accessible on jangolo.cm/trades: producers, input suppliers, processors, hotels, restaurants and traders post their offers and demands in real time.

Two ways to close your deal

Once you’ve found your match, you have two options:

• Deal directly with the seller. You settle the transaction between yourselves — in that case, Jangolo is not responsible: no payment protection and no recourse in case of dispute.
• Use Jangolo’s Trading (Escrow) service. The payment is held in escrow and only released to the seller once the delivery is confirmed compliant. See how the secure transaction works (in French).

The Escrow service is subject to a commission fee. Individuals and businesses holding the Jangolo membership card get a 20% discount on these commissions.
