Who is Market Wagon, and Why?
We are a start-up team carrying out this mission using cutting-edge shopping and supply chain technology, proprietary fulfillment processes, and innovative logistics approaches. Started in Indianapolis in 2016, Market Wagon now operates local food delivery hubs across the Midwest.
We create online farmers markets with delivery to give consumers more access to local food. Our technology and logistics innovations allow farmers and artisans to list and sell their products online with the convenience of e-commerce and fulfill orders with our managed last-mile network.
Our Vision
Market Wagon is committed to serving local farms and food artisans by growing the market for their products with consumer-friendly shopping and delivery services.
Restoring a connection between consumers and the farmers and artisans who produce their food is central to our mission.
Every function of our business, from shopping to fulfillment, is tech-enabled using proprietary software and processes developed by our industry-leading team.
Our innovative fulfillment and logistics approaches enable us to operate e-commerce grocery using local suppliers at a scale never before imagined.
