Algrano is the gateway where independent producers and roasters take charge of how they discover, trade and manage coffee online.
Our online tools bring coffee buying into the 21st century. Now, roasters and producers are equal partners, breaking down the information asymmetry and speculation that traditional importers and coffee traders have exploited over the decades.
Independent roasters have direct access to producers, discovering coffees that meet their needs from producers who match their values.
Producers set their own prices, giving roasters price transparency from FOB to delivery costs. They have a wider customer base and direct contact with the roasters through our award-winning CRM.
This openness builds trust and fosters successful business relationships.
Real relationships support business growth through greater price stability, optimal quality, consistency, and authentic origin information.
This all leads to more resilient supply chains for independent entrepreneurs who can grow together.
Connecting roasters in North America and Europe with coffee producers in Latin America, Africa and Asia.
