Three Entrepreneurs from Innsbruck Built a Global Coffee Software Company. Then They Took Their Team Back to Where It All Began.

Today, Cropster is the world's leading software for specialty coffee — used in more than 100 countries, from farms at origin to roasters and cafés everywhere in between. To celebrate their anniversary, the founders did something remarkable: they brought their entire global team back to Colombia, to the coffee fields where the story first took root.
