Home compostable coffee pods have taken the top spot for retail innovation in the 2022 AFR BOSS Most Innovative Companies list.

MindArc built the Konnect platform to enable codeless e-commerce integrations with third-party systems for retailers with limited developer knowledge.MindArc director Sean Pieres says he wanted to bridge the gap in the integration space where specialists are necessary to develop new architectures and systems.

It had a profound impact, he says, improving the traditional developer and client relationship by stripping away the technical knowledge gap and empowering retailers to take control of their integrations. In a world where retail is not just bricks and mortar and online, and everything is connected, its necessity comes from the market demand for connectivity, he says.Australians consume three million coffee capsules and pods daily, and just 10 per cent of these are recycled.

Made with bio-sourced cellulose and vegetable oils, the organic pods can be composted in home compost bins. The pods were produced as part of the retailer’s sustainability strategy, with Coles working to ensure its own brand product packaging is recyclable, reusable or compostable by 2025.
