Feedpail.com modernizes ingredient trading for bulk feed ingredients

Zoom

Feedpail.com is a unique Agriculture business  to help modernize the process of price discovery and ingredient marketing.  This new tool places price discovery and product availability at Producers fingertips. Users can buy and sell more than 50 bulk feed ingredients, including fats and oils, animal proteins, grain byproducts and minerals.

Ryan Cooney the founder of Feedpail.com finds his site a complex feed ingredient buying and selling system and opens up additional opportunities for both buyers and sellers.

“Agriculture has developed and implemented so many technologies, but when it comes to ingredient buying, there is a real technology gap,” said Ryan Cooney, developer of Feedpail.com, a new website he said was designed to bridge that technological gap. “There are $200 million of bulk feed ingredients traded each week, and most of it is being traded the way it was 20 years ago: over the telephone.” Cooney likened Feedpail.com to websites specializing in travel, noting that just a few years ago, travelers booked flights, hotels and rental cars by making phone calls to several different providers to check prices and availability.
