Roastmarket GmbH

The Situation

Roastmarket collaborates with over 200 coffee roasters from 30+ countries. Each supplier brings their own contracts, organic certificates, certificates of origin, and customs documents.

The rapid growth of the e-commerce business led to an exponential increase in document volume. Manual management became a bottleneck.

Compliance requirements in the food trade require complete traceability of every product from the producer to the end customer.

We import coffee from over 30 countries. Each shipment has different customs documents, certificates, and certificates of origin. Managing this manually was no longer feasible.
