Cerve

We’re hiring! Following the close of our recent EUR4m seed round, we are excited to accelerate our new hiring activity. As part of our commercial expansion plan, we are seeking a brilliant Data Support Executive based in our Gothenburg Hub. In collaboration with the commercial team, you will curate, validate, and unify data across the Cerve platform. This role involves working with internal teams and our broad range of suppliers to ensure data is accurate, reliable, and up-to-date. At Cerve, we operate the infrastructure and API to power a digitally-enabled food system. Over 100 million organisations across the food system still share data manually - our API products enable organisations to develop applications and automation that reduce food waste, enhance food security, increase profitability, and drive growth. Today, over 2,000 organisations engage with the Cerve network and we are growing fast. Backed by leading VCs and advisors from key infrastructure disruptors as Plaid and Tink, we’re building a diverse, driven, A-team of innovative, passionate individuals dedicated to reshaping the future of food with security and sustainability.

We’re excited to announce that Cerve has successfully raised a £3.5M Seed Round, led by SuperSeed and joined by Zenith Ventures, Ponderosa Ventures, and The First Thirty. When we started Cerve, we saw first-hand how fragmented, inefficient, and disconnected data exchange was in the food industry. There was no standardisation, no digital connection between platforms, and a glaring lack of real-time solutions. These challenges weren’t just operational – they were standing in the way of solving some of the world’s most pressing issues, including food waste and food security. Today, over one-third of all food produced globally is wasted, and that staggering statistic has remained unchanged for over a decade. Much of this is due to insufficient visibility and traceability across supply chains. Without standardised, accurate, and real-time data, visionaries, innovators, and disruptors are constrained in their ability to develop solutions quickly, cost-effectively, and at scale. Cerve exists to change this. Our infrastructure and API provide the data standardisation and enrichment needed to empower organisations to create transformative solutions, applications and automations. By giving businesses access to rich and real-time data, we’re enabling them to address global challenges faster and with greater impact. This milestone wouldn’t be possible without the incredible team of passionate and talented individuals driving Cerve forward. In addition, special thanks to Paul Williamson, Andreas Lundgren, Ferdinand Reynolds, Elin Torstensson, Martin Heier, Evi Steyer, Antony Yousefian, Elsa Hyland and many others who share our vision for a digitally-enabled food system.

🧐 Does the rise of APIs mean the death of EDI as we know it? Over the past 60 years, we have witnessed remarkable business operations, communication, and trade transformations. From the advent of computers to the internet, automation, drones, and AI, technology continues to drive efficiency and innovation. In our latest blog post, we delve into the impact of APIs on the traditional EDI system. Is it a game-changer or the end of an era?
