“Procurement of perishable goods is a high velocity, information-hungry process. Buyers and sellers need to be able to quickly find relevant data and put it to use in context, and that is exactly what our new Connect module offers. We see this as just the beginning, as we have plans to bring even more data and services to our customers this year,” said Kevin Brooks, CMO, Procurant.
Procurant Connect integrates external data sources into Procurant One, a leading procurement platform for retail grocers and their perishable goods suppliers. Users can access Procurant Connect to quickly get information about:
- Commodity pricing
- Transportation lane rates
- Recall notices
- Weather
- Currency conversion rates
“I was excited to see the addition of Procurant Connect. It will be helpful to have access to industry data from the Procurant One dashboard—especially the commodity pricing and the ability to filter that data. I’m glad that my buyer traded up to Procurant. It is much more user-friendly than the old system, and it’s even better with Procurant Connect,” said Jack Guan, Business Development, Guan’s Mushrooms.

Procurant Connect is available at no cost to any retailer requesting access. Suppliers on the Procurant One platform have access to Procurant Connect as part of their annual subscription.
