SUCCESS STORY

Era of We is a global coffee marketplace and community that brings together all members of the supply chain and gives a higher value of the coffee brand back to the estates. The application backend is built using comprehensive Golang REST APIs and the front-end is built using the Angular framework.
Case Studies
Era of We is the world's first end-to-end technology platform designed to disrupt and reinvent the coffee supply chain, strengthening the positions of both growers and consumers. It partners with the largest coffee producer named Lofberg which is in Sweden. By fostering a collaborative environment, Era of We aims to build a transparent and equitable coffee community. This web-based platform connects every member of the supply chain, from farmers to consumers, enabling proactive role-building and effective relationship management. Era of We offers a subscription-based model for roasters and complimentary options for producers, consumers, and facilitators. We, Softobotics, partnered with Era of We to develop an efficient, all-inclusive Enterprise resource planning (ERP) software to streamline their data traceability, while also building online presence and enhance the overall user experience.
Era of We needed an ERP to better track their supply chain stages and better connect larger coffee roasters with producers, acting as a bridge between them.
