Challenge

Eliminate unfair farming and trading practices across the coffee supply chain that lead to poor quality coffee and exploitation of farmers. Reduce the manual paper-work across different stages of the coffee supply chain. Reduce the order processing time particularly where different time zones are involved. Enable offline data sync for mobile apps to make up for lack of internet connectivity in and around coffee plants. Deliver ease of work through an interactive admin panel displaying all the key information. Provide farm to fork traceability to coffee consumers through a simple QR code scan at point of sale.

Solution

Our team delivered the full-fledged solution in 2019, well within the set timeline and at an affordable budget. Soon after its launch in 2019, iFinca was awarded the 2019 Best New Product Award in Technology at that year’s Speciality Coffee Association Expo. iFinca has also successfully completed Series A, B, and C rounds of funding. In a short span of time, Finca’s user base includes as many as 38 exporters, 14 importers, 26 roasters, and 19 cafes, and 9430 individual farmers and 13 cooperatives across popular coffee growing countries like Colombia, Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Haiti and Dominican Republic.

Results

Working with Ifinca team offered us a complete deep-dive into global coffee supply chains and their challenges. We soon realized that the challenges we were working on weren't unique to the coffee industry and could be seen at play across various other segments of the Agri-Food Supply Chain such as tea, cocoa, quinoa, hibiscus, cotton, ginger, lychees to name a few. This is what led to the inception of Cropchain - a white label, blockchain based solution built to enable ethical trade practices across food, beverages and FMCG goods supply chains. With most of the groundwork in place, the solution can be deployed in as little as 6-8 weeks time, giving you incredible speed to market.
