Hawke's Bay-based national company StockX won the prestigious Tru-Test Innovation Award at the Beef + Lamb NZ Sheep Industry Awards held in Invercargill last week.
StockX is an online service that enables farmers to trade stock directly with other farmers nationally.
Sales and Marketing Manager Emma Oliver said it was great to be recognised "for the value we are delivering to the market through innovation".
"Thanks must go to those Farmers who have taken the lead, supported and enjoyed better trading outcomes with StockX," she said.
"We're not quite two years old and have engaged with thousands of farmers across all regions of New Zealand. We are enjoying the industry collaboration and have more extensions to the current platform to come. Watch this space."
