We empower craft makers to scale their businesses, streamline their processes, and focus on what they love.
Ekos was founded in 2014 based on a love of craft beverages and software development. Our founders discovered that craft producers were using manual methods like spreadsheets and clipboards to manage their processes and knew there must be a better way.
The only options available were expensive and complicated ERP systems, so they set out to create Ekos, a business management system that was affordable, easy to use, and carefully crafted for craft manufacturers. Ekos is now the industry-leading software for beer, wine, and cider producers, with features and integrations to automate manual tasks like no other tool can.
Focus on the customer. We listen, understand our customers’ needs, and empower them to grow their businesses.
Together, we are more than the sum of our parts. We seek opportunities to serve others, collaborate, and build community, both inside and outside of Ekos.
Be truthful, clear, and transparent in all interactions. We aren’t afraid to speak up and have difficult conversations, and always communicate with empathy, integrity, and concern for others.
Take action, take ownership, and move quickly in decision-making. We hold ourselves and others accountable for following through on commitments and delivering results.
Successful people are excited and energized by progress. We are creative, curious, and resilient as we imagine innovative solutions, take calculated risks, and build the future of Ekos.
Work-life balance isn’t just a buzzword. We stay energized by balancing our personal and professional lives in a healthy way.
