The FoalR concept
The FoalR stallion marketplace offers the following opportunities:
- for stallion owners: to maximize the visibility of their stallions and sell studs online in a simple and secure way,
- for breeders, to benefit from a wide range of stallions on a single platform, with effective search filters, and to buy their covers online in a simple and secure way.
In the words of Nica Stapel, founder of FoalR:
"Every year, it's the same struggle for hundreds of breeders and broodmares: they have to wade through the maze of the web or the ocean of their contacts to identify the available stallions that match their search criteria. Some of this information does exist. But it is scattered, more or less 'visible' and heterogeneous. Often it's the same stallions that we see again and again, because their owners or distributors are better equipped than others to communicate. So we only see the tip of the iceberg.
The idea behind FoalR is to give stallion owners a chance to sell more covers in a simplified and secure way, and to give breeders access to a much wider range of stallions on a European scale, with as much information as possible (such as genetic tests for health, colour, etc.) and to book their covers in a single place."
