Our story
Where Local Lives
Paddock is an Australian-first marketplace connecting people with the roadside stalls, farm gates, and artisan producers who make real food and handmade goods with care. No middlemen. No supermarket markup. Just fresh, local, honest produce — ordered directly from the person who grew it.
Why we built this
Australia has thousands of roadside stalls, farm gates, and weekend producers who sell the best food you'll ever taste — but finding them is still word of mouth and hand-painted signs. Meanwhile, those sellers have no easy way to tell customers when they're open, what's in stock, or how to pay.
We built Paddock to fix that. A live map that shows what's open near you right now. A simple storefront that any producer can set up in under five minutes. Online ordering so buyers can pay ahead and skip the wait. And a commission structure that puts the producer first — 4% per sale, capped at $20, with a free tier for sellers just getting started.
We're Australian-built, Australian-focused, and obsessed with making local food more accessible for everyone.
What we believe
Local first
The freshest food travels the shortest distance. We help buyers find producers in their neighbourhood.
Fair for producers
Sellers keep the vast majority of every sale. Our free tier has no listing fee, no monthly cost, and no tricks.
Community over commerce
We're building a network of neighbours, not a logistics company. The human connection is the point.
