Cacautech develops computer software, provides information technology support and carries out experimental research for the cocoa supply chain, working out of a farm in the Banco do Pedro district of Ilhéus, in the state of Bahia, Brazil.
Software, maintenance and experiments are treated as parts of the same plot: what is learned in the field guides what gets built in code.
Each line of work matches an activity registered in the company's public records. Together they cover the distance between an observation in the field and the digital tool that turns it into something usable.
Development and licensing of off-the-shelf computer software: tools designed to record, organise and follow production data from the plot to the dried bean, in a standard format that can be licensed to other growers and organisations along the chain.
Main activity · CNAE 62.03-1-00Installation, maintenance and user support for computer systems and equipment on rural properties and in cocoa-related businesses, including areas where connectivity is limited.
Support covers both what Cacautech builds and what the grower already relies on.
Secondary activity · CNAE 62.09-1-00Experimental work in the physical and natural sciences applied to cocoa: trials run on the farm itself, with systematic records of field conditions, fermentation and drying, producing knowledge that feeds the other two lines of work.
Secondary activity · CNAE 72.10-0-00No stage is signed off at a desk. Every turn of the cycle goes through the farm before it becomes a deliverable.
A conversation with the grower or organisation, a visit to the area and a record of what is already in place: routines, spreadsheets, equipment and connectivity constraints.
Building or adapting the software, or designing the experimental trial, with criteria agreed before a single line of code is written.
Installation, configuration and training for the people who will use the tool day to day, carried out where they work.
Technical support, maintenance and reading of results in the field, which feed the next turn of the cycle.
CACAUTECH - INOVACOES E NEGOCIOS DE CACAU LTDA is a Brazilian limited liability company formed in August 2022, with its registered office at Fazenda Porto Esperança, in the Banco do Pedro district of the municipality of Ilhéus, Bahia. The region accounts for a significant share of Brazil's shade-grown cocoa, and that is the setting in which the company operates.
Its corporate purpose brings together three activities that usually sit apart: the development and licensing of computer software, information technology support, and experimental research in the physical and natural sciences. Keeping them under one company name reflects how Cacautech sees the problem: a digital tool only helps a grower when the people building it understand fermentation, drying and the rhythm of the harvest.
