Starbucks lacks an effective system to track the chemical substances used from bean to cup in their coffee production. REACH Garden is a cloud-based software that could help solve this issue. It collects and consolidates supply chain information on chemical substances in products into a database, helping companies comply with traceability laws. The software automatically manages supplier reminders and allows visibility into multiple tiers of the supply chain. It is well-suited for Starbucks' needs as it is accessible from anywhere and designed for downstream users. Starbucks would need training for administrators and budget for initial setup costs to fully benefit from this digital traceability tool.
