Case Study

Storage Investment Decision Tool

Overview

Mato Grosso, Brazil is the agricultural heartland of South America — producing over 40 million metric tons of grain annually with an 18% growth rate. Yet storage infrastructure has not kept pace with production, creating a critical bottleneck that costs producers hundreds of millions in losses annually.

Nautilytics built an interactive geospatial decision tool that helps investors, cooperatives, and agribusiness firms identify the optimal locations for new grain storage facilities — combining localized production data, infrastructure maps, and market dynamics into a single, actionable interface.

Step 1

Understand New Markets at a Local Level

The tool serves grain producers, cooperatives, grain buyers, and storage companies — giving each stakeholder a localized view of the competitive landscape, existing facility locations, and unmet storage demand.
