SUBMIT A LISTING

REVIEW REQUIRED BEFORE PUBLICATION
Use this form for equipment, businesses, commercial property or kitchens, grants and bids, local products, services and jobs, or events and vendor calls.
Please do not include passwords, banking information, Social Security numbers or other sensitive personal information.
Your email app is opening with the completed listing. Send that email to place the listing in Chef Joe's approval queue.
This site does not store payment details or automatically publish submissions. Submission does not guarantee publication. Fees may be introduced later, but there is no listing fee announced at this time.

SAFETY & ANTI-FRAUD

How the Exchange protects visitors

  • Manual approval: no user-submitted listing posts automatically.
  • Suspicious links, unverifiable claims and misleading offers may be rejected or removed.
  • The submission form does not collect card numbers, bank logins or government identification.
  • Listings may be edited for clarity and safety before publication.

Protect yourself

  • Never send deposits, gift cards, cryptocurrency or account codes to an unverified person.
  • Inspect equipment and property, verify identities and use written agreements.
  • Payments requested by the Exchange should match an approved listing or written invoice.
  • See something suspicious? Report it to Chef Joe.

SAFE PAYMENTS

Secure online checkout

When an Exchange charge is approved, the preferred online payment method will be a secure checkout or invoice through Chef Joe's connected Shopify store. Shopify handles the card entry—the Exchange site does not see or store your card number.

  • Never rely on payment instructions sent by an unknown third party.
