Frequently Asked Questions

Infield Market is a business-to-business multi-storefront e-commerce website built to buy and sell ingredients from your facility.

Mostly Ingredients suppliers, brands and manufacturers with excess or “need to move” materials.

As a sales and marketing agency, Infield Market is available for manufacturers, brands, ingredient suppliers, but not direct consumers.

We perform a background check on the company and the respective individuals who have set up an account. We would typically speak with a representative directly as well.

Additionally, there are 3 main checks that would alert us to any potential issues:

  • Liability Insurance of the Seller and Buyer
  • Original manufacturer documents and/or a letter of guarantee is required to post a raw material. Additional documents including a Chain of Custody may also be required.
  • The full transaction is not completed until the buyer has signed off on and accepted the material within the time frame outline on the Terms and Conditions. Only then will the funds be released from escrow.

Two secure options:

  • Credit Card via Stripe (3% Processing Fee)
  • Bank – Safely pay with your bank account and avoid credit card fees. Plaid provides a revolutionary platform that is both encrypted and secure for your safety. Check out Plaid.  

You may apply for terms on regularly stocked and/or represented ingredient lines from our iM Direct partners. We also accept ACH and Credit Card Payments through a traditional shopping cart system. 

In the case of excess inventory or rescued ingredients, the transaction is processed in an escrow fashion. Funds from the purchasing party will be taken into escrow immediately. Terms and conditions dictate that the funds are held until the material has been accepted and approved or within 20 days of shipping. Upon approval funds will be released to the seller. The seller isn’t sending valuable product with out assurance that the funds have been allocated and the buyer isn’t transferring funds directly to the seller without receiving the material agreed upon.

  • In this system, you are gaining the benefit of competitively priced and usually discounted items. Funds are NOT passed directly to the seller immediately. Instead, they are held in an escrow account to ensure accountability by each party. This is clean and simple and avoids the hassle of tracking down payment on invoices or refunds should the need arise. 
  • Because inventory is as shown, product is set to sell and ship quickly.
  • In some instances, we will consider the nature of the proposal on behalf of both parties. 

Simply click on the “dashboard” or “cart” which will prompt a new account set up and allow you to thoroughly search the ingredients you are looking for by key word and various sub categories.

You manage your listing, prices, etc. We will provide guidance as we see fit.

We included a map to show you where each product is located to help make the best decision according to your geographical location. The map also shows you just how much product there really is!

You can use the key words to search a specific branded ingredient, raw material manufacturer that you may have already approved and narrow this down through the options in “Attribute,” “Sub Categories” and even search by price and expiration dates.

We do not charge a sample fee.
