Sales, distribution and equipment on loan under control across the coffee supply chain

.one: the digital platform for coffee roasters looking to increase sales, margins and operational control

Some of our experience

HoReCa leaders such as Hausbrandt, Segafredo Zanetti, Caffè Vergnano, and many other coffee roasters have adopted the .one software platform to improve the management of sales, distribution and equipment on loan across thousands of bars and restaurants. Built on nearly 40 years of deep, sector-specific experience, .one leverages the latest technologies to ensure precise control at every stage of the coffee supply chain.

“In our new organisational sales and distribution strategy, the field agent plays a central role: no longer just a salesperson, but the custodian of a wealth of valuable information. That’s why we chose Aton as our partner. Thanks to their expertise and the quality of their solutions, Aton has enabled our agents to be far more productive in their customer relationships, while giving the business access to always up-to-date reports on its reference market.”

Alessandro Gaiba, IT Manager – Segafredo Zanetti

With .one, information on contracts, installations and maintenance is always aligned and available in real time.

  • Sales teams and management can monitor volumes, profitability and the TCO of the machine fleet, with margin control for each individual customer.
  • The B2B portal enables bar owners to manage reorders and access training content—making them the brand’s first ambassador.

The result: clear visibility on performance, smoother processes, and a stronger relationship with each outlet, supported by value-added digital services.
