Why coffee roasters need auto-syncing stockist maps
Cafes churn fast. Wholesale reps hate spreadsheets. Here is why a Shopify auto-syncing stockist map is the single highest-leverage tool a coffee roaster can install.

Roasters live in a very specific place: wholesale bag orders drive the bulk of revenue, and cafes rotate on and off fast. That makes a stockist page one of the highest-leverage marketing pages you own, and one of the hardest to keep up to date.
Why 'update the Shopify page' fails
The moment your wholesale coordinator is asked to also maintain the storefront's Find Us page, they'll do it for a month and then stop. Manual entry never wins against real work.
The auto-sync alternative
Every qualifying wholesale bag order becomes a pin. Every cafe that stops ordering for 90 days gracefully drops off. Every new cafe gets an email inviting them to confirm their hours and photo.
