Streamlined supply chain. Better data. Better outcomes for farmers.
How Kitsilano Technologies deployed SAP Business One on AWS for Agrivolve, transforming agricultural supply chain management and enabling data-driven decisions that improve coffee quality and farmer earnings across Africa.
The Company
Technology built to serve
the farm and the farmer.
Agrivolve is an agricultural technology company working to create lasting positive change for smallholder coffee farmers across Africa. Their platform connects farmers to buyers, tracks produce quality from field to export, and brings enterprise-grade tools to farming communities that have historically been underserved by technology.
As Agrivolve scaled, managing the complexity of agricultural supply chains across multiple farm sources, variable quality grades, and seasonal cycles demanded more than disconnected systems could deliver. Kitsilano Technologies deployed SAP Business One on AWS to give Agrivolve the operational backbone to grow with their mission.
In Their Words
“The team at Kitsilano made the entire process seamless with zero downtime to date. Our operations continued without interruption, and our users didn't skip a beat. We are experiencing improved user experience, reduced downtime, increased security, and lowered maintenance costs.”

The Challenge
Supply chain too complex to manage manually
Managing an agricultural supply chain across multiple farm sources, quality grades, and seasonal variables is operationally intensive. Agrivolve's teams were handling procurement, quality tracking, farmer payments, and financial reporting on disconnected systems that couldn't provide the real-time visibility needed to make confident decisions.
Manual processes unable to keep pace with supply chain complexity
No unified view of procurement, quality, and financial performance
The Approach
SAP Business One on AWS, tailored for agriculture
Kitsilano implemented SAP Business One on a cloud-hosted AWS environment, configured to match Agrivolve's agricultural operations. The deployment connected procurement, quality tracking, farmer payments, and financial reporting into a single managed platform, with the scalability to grow as Agrivolve's network of farmers and buyers expands.
