Manunuzi Holdings

The Challenge

Manunuzi Holdings Limited, a Kenyan coffee hero, brewed success by sourcing exquisite beans from local farmers and sharing them with Europe and the Middle East. But beneath their aromatic surface, they faced a bitter reality: their internal operations were trapped in a single Microsoft Excel worksheet. This spreadsheet, their loyal but limited companion, struggled to manage complex tasks, track data accurately, and scale with their growth. Manual processes choked efficiency, leaving Manunuzi yearning for a solution that wouldn't leave them counting beans with a calculator.
