Early access program
BeanFlux for coffee and cacao exporters
The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) requires that, starting December 2026, every coffee or cacao lot bound for the European Union is backed by farm geolocation and a verifiable chain of custody. BeanFlux originates that data at the moment of purchase and carries it lot by lot to the shipment. And with the private marketplace, your buying orders reach your entire supplier network with quotes organized in one place, not scattered across chats and calls. We are opening a limited group of exporters to build these modules against real operations.
Request early access →EUDR: traceability stops being a differentiator and becomes a requirement
The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) covers coffee and cacao. To keep selling to European Union buyers, every exported lot will have to prove which farm it came from, with coordinates, and whose hands it passed through on the way to the container. Anyone who runs an exporter knows where the problem is: today that information lives scattered across buying-point spreadsheets, warehouse notebooks and people’s memory.
Farm geolocation
Every lot must be linked to the coordinates of the farm that produced it. If the purchase was recorded without that data, there is no serious way to add it six months later, once the lot has been milled and blended.
Chain of custody
Knowing the farm of origin is not enough. You must be able to prove the full journey: receipt, analysis, milling, blends, transfers between warehouses and assignment to the shipment. Every step, documented.
The data is born at purchase
Reconstructing traceability at export time is archaeology: cross-referencing sheets, calling suppliers, guessing. Originating the data at receipt, with the supplier standing in front of you, is just one more field. That is the whole difference.
Documentation per shipment
The due diligence statement requires consolidating the information of every lot in a shipment. If the data was originated properly, that document builds itself. If not, every shipment costs a week of work.
None of this is optional for anyone exporting to Europe. The only real decision is whether the data is originated properly at purchase, or reconstructed by hand before every shipment.
For the full detail on the regulation, dates and requirements, see the EUDR operational guide for coffee and cacao (in Spanish).
The program
What early access includes
Exporters in the program get the complete operational platform, plus the export modules we are building with them.
Geolocation at purchase
Farm coordinates are captured at receipt and linked to the lot from the first record. No extra steps, no parallel spreadsheets.
Traceability to the shipment
Every receipt creates an immutable lot. Trace any green coffee lot backwards, to the receipt and the supplier of origin, and forwards, to the container.
Private buying marketplace
Publish buying orders to your closed supplier network, receive organized, comparable quotes, and award with a complete history. No more closing deals over chats.
Documentation ready to declare
The geolocation and chain-of-custody information for each shipment is consolidated and ready for your due diligence statement. You file; the system prepares.
Coffee and cacao on one platform
The regulation covers both products. So does BeanFlux: each with its own flows, qualities and price references, without duplicating systems.
The complete operational platform
Purchases, inventory by lot, quality control, contracts and margins per operation. The export modules are not a separate system: they are part of the same flow.
Stop closing purchases over chats and calls
Today a large buying order moves like this: calls, messages, prices going back and forth over WhatsApp, and in the end nobody has the complete history of who quoted what. BeanFlux’s private marketplace changes that flow: you publish your buying order once, with templates that get it ready in minutes, and it reaches your entire supplier network at the same time.
The network is yours and it is closed: you invite your trusted suppliers. Each supplier quotes without seeing anyone else’s numbers, and you see every quote in real time, compared side by side. When you close the quoting window, you award: to a single supplier or split across several. Every award is recorded in the system with its contract, its order and its internal document.
- Publish your buying order once, in minutes
- Your entire network receives it and quotes in parallel
- Compare every quote side by side, in real time
- Award in full or split; the contract is recorded
- Negotiations scattered across chats, calls and emails
- Quotes with no record and no history
- Suppliers finding out what everyone else is quoting
- Orders closed with no document and no traceability
Frequently asked questions
What exporters ask us
What exactly does the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) require?
The EUDR requires that every lot of coffee or cacao entering the European Union is backed by the geolocation of the farms that produced it, evidence that those lands were not deforested after 2020, and a due diligence statement filed before entry. For the Colombian operator, the operational part is traceability: knowing which farm every kilo of a shipment came from, and being able to prove it.
When does the EUDR take effect?
The regulation is already in force; what arrives now is mandatory application: December 30, 2026 for medium and large operators, and June 30, 2027 for micro and small companies. For a Colombian exporter the real date comes earlier: European buyers will start demanding geolocation and due diligence information months in advance, to secure their own supply chains.
Does BeanFlux connect directly to the European Union system?
No. BeanFlux originates and organizes the data: geolocation captured at purchase, chain of custody lot by lot, and each shipment’s information consolidated and ready for the statement. You or your agent file with the European system, with complete documentation in hand instead of reconstructed in a rush.
Is the marketplace open? Who sees my buying orders?
It is not open. It is your private network: you decide which suppliers join, and only they receive your buying orders. Each supplier sees only their own quote, never anyone else’s. You, on the other hand, see all of them in real time, compared side by side. It is a negotiating desk with your trusted suppliers, not a public auction.
What happens when I award a buying order?
The award can be full or split across several suppliers. When you award, the system generates the operation records for both sides, contract and order included, and produces the internal purchase order document. The deal is closed with a complete history: who quoted, when and under what terms.
Does the program cover cacao too?
Yes. The European regulation covers coffee and cacao, and BeanFlux manages both on the same platform, each with its own qualities, flows and price references. If your operation exports both, you do not need two systems.
What commitment does joining the program involve?
Using the system in your real operation and telling us what works and what is missing, in short feedback sessions. Implementation is guided: we migrate your data, configure your qualities and warehouses, and train your team. No technical staff required.
When will the export modules be ready?
The operational platform (purchases, inventory, quality, contracts, margins) is in production today. The private marketplace and the European traceability modules are part of the early access program: they are refined and completed with the exporters in the group, with the European regulation’s calendar as the real deadline. Joining early means your operation defines what gets built first.
We build these modules with exporters, not for them
BeanFlux was built from inside the business, with people who have spent decades buying, milling and exporting. The export modules follow the same path: a limited group of exporters uses them on their real operation, and what is missing gets built in that order, not in the one we imagine.
- Guided implementation from day one
- The export modules at no additional cost during the program
- Direct priority over the export roadmap
- Your data is yours, exportable at any time
- Coffee or cacao exporters operating in Colombia
- Current or planned sales to European Union buyers
- Willingness to use the system in daily operations
- Short feedback sessions with our team
