The volunteers have been assisting Hopcoms by scheduling the sale of fruits to apartments across the city through the Bengaluru Apartment Federation (BAF) and Force-GW. It toured 198 wards of the city on April 25 and 26, with 400 tonnes of pineapple from Uttara Kannada and Shivamogga, grapes from Kolar and Chikkaballapur, and watermelon and musk melon from various other districts there about 5,000 tonnes of pineapples waiting to be marketed.

The sales of farm produce by getting farmers and consumers on the same platform, without eyeing any gain, it was lead to purely a service to provide market facilities.
