At Sovda, our goal is simple: help roasters make better coffee, more efficiently. Last year, we continued to see that goal come to life when we partnered with over 20 demo sites. 

Through our demo program, speciality coffee roasters with a dedication to quality coffee and innovation, have been able to use our Sovda equipment at a generous discount and experience the efficiency of our color-sorting technology. 

Recently, Sovda experienced another milestone opening up its first Kyviv, Ukraine demo site at the coffeehouse, “Khlebniy.”

Note: In most countries, Sovda sells directly, but in Ukraine the most feasible option was to partner with our distributor, Lodmar. 

Max, our co-founder, spent a week training Lodmar’s technical and sales team on Sovda’s equipment.

Sovda’s current demo sites around the world

Getting to know our demo site partners has been fuel for the fire at Sovda. And not only do we have the opportunity to partner with these talented people, but demo site partners become part of the large demo site family with a shared mission to see innovation in coffee. 

Revolutionizing the coffee industry can not come from one roastery, it has to come from roasters around the world collaborating together. 

Here are a few of our innovative demo site partners as well as a world map of our current locations:
