every segment of the food industry at the fingertips of the world,

food business to business ecommerce company. Already visited each day

farmers instantly with the latest and sometimes vital information
necessary for maximum production and profit. The user-friendly hub site
includes detailed up-to-the-minute coverage of such diverse areas of
the global marketplace as grains, livestock, goods and services,

By joining forces with eHarvest.com, Foodvision.com continues to offer
bigger options for its users by bringing in a much larger audience of
primary producers who give birth to business-to-consumer ecommerce
capabilities in the form of online shopping as well as
consumer-to-consumer ecommerce capabilities in the form of online
auctions and the sale of proprietary items.

bring together a sizable group of consumers that might normally not
co-exist. Says Raj Kalra, Chief Information Officer, Foodvision.com,

through eHarvest, but, we are also excited for them because they will
be discovered by a large part of our audience that might not even be

vital areas of the food industry and we are proud to become a part of
that precedent."
