weightcapture™ ensures that the processing of raw goods is fully traceable and accurate. This means ethical standards can be upheld, farmers can be paid fairly, and consumers know exactly where their food is from.
Agricultural supply chains are invariably based upon the sale and purchase of weighed goods. Too often, the weight capture process is vulnerable to pilferage, exploitation and dishonest dealing, particularly in rural locations. The analogue nature of these processes allows for inaccurate logging of quantities, purposeful ‘under’ weighing and an inability to accurately trace the source of produce. WeightCapture™ is a digital solution that uses biometric, bluetooth and cloud technology to deliver full verification in the management and processing of goods; eradicating tampering and corruption, and ensuring total transparency in the supply chain, from seed to shelf.
This unique system provides confidence of ethical supply to farmers, co-operatives, companies, NGOs and consumers.

Assurance of procedures
Accurate logging of processes means procedures and standards are upheld and are fully visible to all parties.
Access to finance
Our partnerships with lenders and digitisation of a farmer’s transaction history ensure that farmers can access affordable advances that would otherwise not be available to them.
weightcapture™ collects weight data using a Bluetooth enabled scale and sends it real-time, exchanging information with the warehouse so that the product collected can be processed.
1. Sync hardware
Turn on and sync the rugged Android mobile, WeightCapture™ digital scales, bluetooth printer and fingerprint scanner.
2. Confirm Identity
Use the Android Mobile and fingerprint scanner to identify yourself and the digital scales will wirelessly sync to the mobile.
3. Print
A ticket will be printed via the bluetooth printer confirming the transaction for the farmer to take for his records.
4. Sync to server
The Android PDA syncs to the Server as soon as there is internet available. The connection is both ways and is asynchronous allowing the system to work independently for a number of hours without the need to sync.
