AgroFresh is a global leader in post-harvest fruit preservation solutions — technology that reduces losses, extends shelf life, and connects producers to international markets.
The partnership with Sioux began with the maintenance and evolution of a critical system already in global operation, built on AngularJS and Kendo UI, with a Java/Vert.x backend and SQL Server running on Azure with Docker and Kubernetes.

of continuous partnership
The platform couldn't stop.
The main challenge was twofold: maintaining a live system with high availability for operations across dozens of countries, while simultaneously expanding it to new geographies and new products.
Any integration error or downtime had a direct impact on the supply chain of global clients.
A continuous partnership model with dedicated teams, controlled release processes, and test automation to ensure stability during expansions.
Each new product or country integration went through a technical discovery process to map dependencies and risks before implementation.
Evolutionary maintenance, global expansion, and new product integration — all without disrupting operations.
Architecture & platforms: Evolutionary maintenance of the existing platform (AngularJS, Kendo UI, Java/Vert.x), with incremental modernization and progressive migration of modules to React Native for mobile interfaces.
Global expansion & localization: Platform extension to 11 new countries in 3 years, with support for multiple languages, time zones, and local regulations in each market.
New integrated products: Integration of 5 new AgroFresh solutions — Strella (ethylene monitoring), Fogging, FreshVue (analytics), Fysium, and Esker — into the platform's core ecosystem.
Global growth
The platform went from 23 to 34 countries covered — a 48% increase in global coverage — while maintaining operational stability throughout the expansion.
Expanded portfolio
Over 5 new products integrated into the core ecosystem, increasing value delivered to clients and the platform's recurring revenue.
Long-term partnership
6 years of continuous partnership with dedicated teams, a model that allowed AgroFresh to evolve its critical platform without operational interruption and without needing to build an equivalent-scale internal team.
