Web Developer for Import/Export Company

PROJECT OVERVIEW We are looking for a creative website designer and developer to build a modern, professional website for Roots & Routes, a B2B food trading and import/export company. Roots & Routes connects trusted producers in Argentina and Chile with international buyers. Our product portfolio includes oils, olives and olive paste, nuts, dried fruits, preserves, and other selected food products. The website should feel trustworthy, premium, natural, and internationally oriented. It must appeal to potential distributors, hotels, retailers, food-service businesses, and other international B2B clients. We do not want a boring or generic corporate website. We would like a polished, visually engaging result using a high-quality template as a starting point, customized to match our brand and content.

Please recommend the platform you believe is best for this project. The completed website must allow us to make basic text and image updates ourselves. Any hosting, template, plugin, image, or subscription costs must be disclosed before the project begins. Paid assets must not be purchased without our approval. EXPECTED PAGES The website will include approximately five main pages: • Home • About Us • Products • Services and Export Process • Contact The final navigation may be adjusted slightly based on your recommendations.

DESIRED VISUAL STYLE The website should feel: • Premium and trustworthy • Modern but not overly trendy • Natural, warm, and elegant • Professional enough for international B2B clients • Visually connected to South America, agriculture, trade, origins, and global routes Our current visual direction includes deep olive green, cream, sand, warm gold, elegant typography, and subtle references to landscapes, olive branches, roots, routes, shipping, and international connections.
