the ways Mockingbird connects the Marketplace to living Space

• Short Chain Economy: a local or regional economy that can function with three or fewer tiers of chain movement from production to retail exchange.  The functionality is due in large part to personal connections across commercial sectors, close regional proximity, flexible options for additional availability, ease of discovery and access, and rapid transportation among commercial providers and consumers.

• Mockingbird Exchange takes a scattered small business economy and weaves the Patrons and Merchants together to increase the number of Patrons that discover Merchants locally and regionally.  Where global economies have long and complex supply chains, Mockingbird Exchange brings innovative efficiency to link Patrons and Merchants, and Wholesale Merchants with the participants.  This is the Short Chain Economy. Simple, direct, local and regional, the Short Chain Economy increases options for goods and services that benefit local and regional businesses.  The increase in Patron volume increases sales volume and lowers prices for once smaller Merchants selling quality products and services.  The lower prices in greater volume make small businesses more competitive to their large volume, long supply chain counterparts.
