Winery solution provider finds Napa home

September 10, 2015 - Oztera, a leading provider of software and services for businesses in the wine, agriculture and high tech industries, today announced the opening of their Napa office at 2785 Napa Valley Corporate Drive. While Oztera has been working with Napa Valley wineries for more than 6 years, President Minou Barabi wanted a base of support for local employees and clients that would allow Oztera to take a more active role in the Napa Valley community.

Oztera has been a Gold Certified Microsoft partner since 2003 when they designed a high tech manufacturing solution on the Microsoft Dynamics NAV platform. The expertise they gained in manufacturing proved invaluable in addressing the needs of the agriculture industry and in 2009 they began to apply their knowledge to the wine industry. At that time, they teamed up with leading point of sale solution provider, LS Retail, which is being used in more than 50,000 stores around the world. The resulting elegant solution is TeraVina™, the only fully integrated domestic and international solution made exclusively for the wine industry. TeraVina™ is being used in wineries of all sizes in California wine regions including Sonoma, the Napa Valley, South Bay, and Paso Robles and is expanding to Washington and Oregon as well as other wine regions around the world.

President Minou Barabi says "We are happy to have found a home in the Napa Valley so we can strengthen our client partnerships even more. We look forward to taking a leadership role in the local community and are happy to be associated with such a world renowned, well-respected wine growing region. We have found this community and its people to be most welcoming."

Oztera's team of more than 20 employees has been quietly changing the face of the wine industry from behind the scenes. Unlike other winery solutions, in TeraVina™, all of the core business processes from harvest to production to retail sales are built on the same application. This unique design allows for real-time traceability and visibility throughout the business. Since there is no reconciliation or synchronization required, employees are free to focus on wine quality and other aspects of running a successful winery. Oztera also works with an elite group of partners offering best of breed applications that further extend the product's reach.
