The Sri Lankan Tea Industry's Digital Gap
Ceylon Tea commands premium prices globally, but the industry's back-end operations often run on decades-old systems. Green leaf suppliers deliver to the factory gate, and someone writes down the weight in a notebook. The factory processes thousands of kilograms daily, but tracking conversion ratios from green leaf to made tea happens on a calculator at month-end.
Meanwhile, at the Colombo Tea Auction, your teas are cataloged and sold by the broker, but reconciling auction sales with your production lots and calculating the actual profitability of each manufacturing lot requires cross-referencing multiple documents manually.
ReoBiz bridges this digital gap. From green leaf intake weighment to auction sale reconciliation, every step is captured digitally. You know your manufacturing cost per kilo, your conversion ratios in real-time, and your profitability by grade - not approximately, but precisely.
Green Leaf Procurement Tracking
Bought leaf from hundreds of smallholders needs weight recording, quality assessment, and payment calculation. With manual ledgers, disputes over weights and advance balances are constant.
Manufacturing Cost Opacity
What does it actually cost to produce a kilo of BOP? Or BOPF? Without tracking energy, labor, and leaf cost per manufacturing lot, you don't really know - and you can't price competitively.
Estate Labor Management
Large estates employ hundreds of workers. Tracking plucking weights, attendance, overtime, EPF/ETF, and estate-specific benefits manually is error-prone and time-consuming.
Auction Sale Reconciliation
Matching auction catalog numbers to your production lots, then reconciling broker proceeds after deducting brokerage, warehousing, and transport charges requires significant manual effort.
