Demystifying the Coffee Supply Chain

Take Control of Your Supply Chain With The New Sourcing Planner

Written by Krystyna Waterhouse | 11 May 2021 07:18:41 Z

Have you seen the new sourcing planner on Algrano? It first appeared on your dashboard in February and allowed roasters create their own sourcing calendar for origins they are interested in. Now you can tailor it to your needs even more and follow only specific growers or coffee profiles and see the ordering and shipping windows this year.

In case you haven't seen the planner yet, you can check it out on your roaster dashboard. Looks great, right?

What can you do with the new planner? A lot of things!

1. Personalise your planner by selecting origins you are interested in, and see the ordering and shipping windows for shipments planned this year.



2. Once you have customised your planner, you can click on any bar for shipping dates, and to browse coffees from that origin.

3. Make it even more personal! Add specific coffee interests. Only interested in washed coffees from Kenyan? Want to know all about organic naturals scored between 82 and 86 points? You can now save a specific coffee interest to the planner, and see the arrival dates and ordering window for shipments planned this year.


We have loads of new features planned for this year, so keep an eye out in the blog and newsletters for announcements! Happy sourcing planning!
