Tea export on SAP

From the auction catalogue to the vessel, every lot on one SAP core.

Built for Sri Lankan tea exporters who buy, taste, blend, pack and ship to the world. One system from the tea room to the bank.

    Real margin per contract

Where margin leaks

Every exporter knows these four. Few can see them as they happen.

01

Buying off the plan

Lots bought without a live view of open contracts and free stock.

02

Blend balances

Small leftovers that quietly lose value after every blend.

03

The late carton

One missing item holds back a whole container.

04

The quote nobody checks

Freight, FX and certification costs that never reach the margin report.

We'll show you how SAP closes each one, using your own contracts.

What you'll see

Three views your team has never had in one place.
