Costa Farms is one of the largest horticultural growers in the world, with operations across the U.S. and Dominican Republic. They grow and distribute more than 1,500 plant varieties, serving retailers nationwide from over 9 production sites.
Their workforce spans English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole speakers, with thousands of seasonal and full-time employees managing climate-sensitive, high-velocity production.
As operations scaled, Costa needed a better way to standardize work across geographies, eliminate paperwork delays, and deliver real-time guidance to the frontline in the language they understand best.
Before Dozuki, SOPs were scattered, some in binders, some on SharePoint, some not documented at all. Supervisors and engineers retyped Word documents, translated them manually, and reprinted dozens of versions when updates were made. Approvals often took 30–45 days. Many SOPs sat unused on shelves or never made it to the floor.
Operators spent over 7 minutes just trying to find the right SOP. Training varied by site. Collaboration across teams was rare. The result? Inconsistent execution, redundant work, and major risk of error.
Costa Farms set out to unify process documentation into a single digital platform that could:
Costa adopted Dozuki as their single source of truth for standard work. Guides are now created once, translated automatically, and instantly accessible via QR codes placed at machines, workstations, and production zones.
Workers scan a code, choose their language, and follow step-by-step visual instructions, complete with images, videos, and built-in error-proofing. SOPs are live, linked, and role-based.
