How does FeedMatch source feed, ingredients and mill equipment?
FeedMatch Group is a human-led, supplier-neutral B2B feed procurement service for commercial feed-production projects from USD $250,000 and up, covering two distinct scopes: finished-feed and ingredient procurement, and feed-mill and production-line projects. It is the specialized animal feed and feed-ingredient platform of Global B2B Group. Buyers describe one requirement — species, product, specification, tonnage, destination and Incoterm — and the FeedMatch team reviews it before anything moves: no supplier is contacted until an authorized human reviewer approves the request. FeedMatch is not a manufacturer, seller, trader, distributor, nutritionist, veterinarian, EPC contractor, lender, adviser, marketplace, directory or automatic matcher, and does not guarantee feed safety, FCR or animal performance. It serves feed mills, integrators, importers, commercial farms, EPC contractors, governments and project owners, and is not intended for hobby, backyard, pet-owner or small retail buyers. The next step is to submit a request through the RFQ builder or the quote form.
Built for commercial feed procurement from USD $250K+ — annual feed supply, ingredient and additive contracts, premix programmes, import contracts and feed-mill equipment projects from USD $250,000 to $20M+.

Direct answers
What is FeedMatch Group?
FeedMatch Group is a human-led, supplier-neutral B2B feed procurement service for commercial feed-production projects from USD $250,000 and up, spanning two distinct scopes: finished-feed and ingredient procurement, and feed-mill and production-line projects. It is not a manufacturer, trader, lender, marketplace, directory or automatic matcher. A buyer submits one structured requirement; the FeedMatch team reviews it, and only after authorized human review is it sent to independent suppliers that serve that product and market, whose offers are collated so they can be compared on the same basis.
Is FeedMatch a supplier, broker, marketplace or operator?
None of those. FeedMatch is a human-led, buyer-side procurement service — not a marketplace, directory or automatic matcher. It does not own stock, take title to goods, resell feed, operate mills or add markups to supplier quotations, and it does not sell ranking or promoted placement. Suppliers are contacted only after authorized human review of the request; suppliers then quote and contract directly with the buyer.
Who should use FeedMatch?
Feed mills and compound-feed producers, poultry, dairy, beef and swine integrators, aquaculture and pet-food producers, importers and distributors, EPC contractors building feed plants, and government or institutional buyers running feed tenders. It fits buyers with a defined specification and a commercial volume who need comparable offers from more than one independent supplier.
What information does FeedMatch need to route a request?
Species and production stage, product type and form, the nutritional or technical specification with tolerances, tonnage per shipment and per year, packaging, destination port or site, Incoterm, required certifications and documentation, and payment terms. Requests missing these fields usually produce non-comparable quotations, so the RFQ builder collects them before the request is reviewed.
How does FeedMatch handle a request?
A request is reviewed by the FeedMatch team for completeness and fit — no supplier is contacted before an authorized human reviewer approves it. Once approved, the requirement is sent to independent suppliers whose category, capacity and market coverage match it. Suppliers respond with their own offers and documentation, which FeedMatch normalizes to the same specification, unit and Incoterm so the buyer can compare spec, landed cost and lead time before selecting a supplier.
