What Producers Trust does
Producers Trust is a private, tech-powered platform company that organizes sustainable supply chain solutions for the food and agriculture sector. The company's flagship offering is LRM™ (Landscape Relationship Management), a proprietary platform built on Salesforce that coordinates multi-stakeholder programs at the landscape level — connecting consumer packaged goods brands, commodity traders, development finance institutions, governments, IGO/NGOs, and farmer groups around shared sustainability outcomes. The platform is supported by a portfolio of sub-brands: Producers Market (a global marketplace linking buyers and sellers in shared-value partnerships), StoryBird (a customer experience storytelling engine for sustainable supply chains), Fairtrasa (an organic and Fairtrade sustainable trade operator), and Producers Mobile (an in-development farmer digitization application).
The company generates revenue through two primary streams: platform and solution services (likely subscription or service-based arrangements for program management, data validation, and supply chain sustainability reporting), and marketplace facilitation through Producers Market. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and appears to be contact-based, consistent with an enterprise field sales motion that targets five distinct customer segments — with enterprises (CPG brands and commodity traders) as the primary segment, alongside development finance, government, IGO/NGO, and farmer group engagements. The go-to-market is direct enterprise sales with global reach.
Founded in 2017 and legally operating as Producers Market LLC in Georgia, USA, Producers Trust is a fully remote organization with team members spanning more than 13 countries. The company has not disclosed any external funding rounds, suggesting organic or self-funded growth to date. Its strategic positioning emphasizes a "landscape-level" approach to systems change over commodity-centric supply chain models, supported by institutional partnerships with organizations including the UNDP, IICA, Accenture, Salesforce, ProColombia, and GASP, and advised by senior figures from Pegasus Capital, Credit Suisse, and former California EPA leadership.
