World Coffee Research and Eximware Inc. Announce Global Partnership in Support of the Coffee Industry
COLLEGE STATION, Texas and STAMFORD, Conn. (PRWEB) March 15, 2018 -- World Coffee Research (WCR) and Eximware Inc. today announced a strategic partnership to advance WCR’s global mission to enhance supplies of quality coffee while improving the livelihoods of the families who produce it.
An initial area of focus will be to introduce WCR’s “Check-off” funding mechanism into Eximware’s Partner XM commodity management- coffee trading and risk management- software platform. This will allow Eximware clients to seamlessly direct “pennies per pound” contributions toward WCR’s mission through streamlined collection and reporting.
Since 2012, WCR has garnered support from many of the most prominent names in the coffee industry to help fund its pre-competitive research and development efforts. WCR will benefit from the technical expertise of the Eximware team to design and develop coffee-centric system enhancements within Eximware’s Partner XM Suite of coffee software solutions. In addition, Eximware is supporting WCR’s efforts to establish an information management platform to capture, analyze and report on WCR’s research projects globally.
According to Tim Schilling, CEO of WCR, “World Coffee Research chose to partner with Eximware because of its extensive knowledge of commodity management technology and in particular its strong reputation in the coffee community among exporters, importers and roasters. We will work closely with Eximware to create and sustain the most value for our stakeholders.”
