How HogMatch works

One pig. One listing. A clearer way to find the right match.

HogMatch is a fixed-price show pig marketplace, not an auction. Each listing belongs to one animal and gives the buyer a direct path to the breeder.

For buyers

  • Find the right pig. Filter by breed, sex, age, location and price, then review the photos, video and listing details.
  • Ask through HogMatch. Send the breeder a question without publishing either person’s contact information.
  • Reserve with a deposit. Create an account and pay the displayed deposit through HogMatch. After successful payment, buyer and breeder contact details are released.
  • Arrange pickup. Confirm timing, paperwork and transportation directly with the breeder. Pay the displayed remaining balance to the breeder at pickup.

For approved breeders

  • Apply once for a breeder account. A person reads it. No automated rejections.
  • After approval, submit one pig per listing with accurate details, clear media, a price and pickup information.
  • HogMatch reviews each submission before it appears in the catalog.
  • Your account shows the listing’s actual state, expiration, views and buyer inquiries.
  • Answer questions through the listing, then arrange collection or hauling with the buyer.
