Listen Later

Welcome to the first episode of The Supply Chain Chronicles, where storytelling meets technology to explore the challenges and opportunities of modern supply chains.


In The Coffee Conundrum, we meet Alejandro Alvarez, a proud traditionalist running Finca Buen Grano, a family-owned coffee farm in Colombia. When a surprise feature in Gastronomía Global triples their orders overnight, chaos erupts. From mislabeled inventory and gravel-filled coffee bags to a weevil infestation and an unexpected delivery of live chickens, the farm’s outdated systems are pushed to the brink.


Alejandro’s tech-savvy niece Sofia sees a lifeline in a custom software solution designed to transform their operations. But can a state-of-the-art system save the day in time for an incoming magazine crew and their high expectations?
