Our History
Trade in Space began operations in 2019 with the ambition to explore how satellite data can be integrated with blockchain technology through the development of Satellite Activated Smart Contracts.
Initially focusing on the coffee farming sector, we managed to achieve a mapping accuracy of over 98%, surpassing existing commercial technologies.
In 2020, our proprietary mapping software and blockchain architecture enabled the purchase of the world’s first space-traded coffee: a total of 60 kg of coffee from the El Diviso Coffee Farm in Colombia was shipped to Dear Green Coffee‘s roastery in Glasgow, Scotland.
Recognizing the growing importance of sustainability, we diversified our focus in 2021 by incorporating sustainability metrics into our coffee mapping algorithms. This led to a seed round investment from within the coffee sector, which allowed Trade in Space to expand our development team and enhance our product offerings. We received additional support from the European Space Agency (ESA) in 2023.
Since launching our flagship product, Sustainimaps, our technology has been helping to maintain deforestation-free supply chains for some of the world’s largest coffee and cacao producers, enabling our clients to comply with EU Green Deal legislation and generate millions in green finance.
