Solen Acquires Spokane Software Systems
We're pleased to announce our acquisition of Spokane Software Systems, Inc., a provider of agricultural ERP and produce traceability software for growers, packers, and shippers.

Solen Software Group has acquired Spokane Software Systems, Inc., a provider of agricultural ERP and produce traceability software for growers, packers, and shippers. The transaction closed in December 2025.

Founded in 1978 by Tim Smith, Spokane Software develops mission-critical systems used by agricultural operators to manage core packing and shipping workflows. The company has a long-standing presence in the produce industry, supporting operational continuity and regulatory compliance for customers across the supply chain.

Spokane Software’s primary platform, The Spokane System, supports the operational backbone of produce businesses by improving visibility and control across packing and shipping operations. The company also offers PackPoint, a Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) and traceability solution designed to support Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI) requirements, providing real-time product and packer information with payroll integration.

“Solen was the right long-term owner for Spokane Software,” said Tim Smith, founder of Spokane Software. “This partnership ensures continuity for our customers and employees, while allowing continued investment in the product. Chris Poston continues on as CEO of the company.”

“Spokane Software plays a critical role in how produce businesses manage packing, shipping, and traceability,” said Alexander Spencer, founder and CEO of Solen Software Group. “Its longevity and customer trust align well with Solen’s long-term ownership approach.”

Solen is excited to support the next chapter of growth for Spokane Software by investing in its product, expanding its customer base, and building on the strong foundation Tim Smith established over more than four decades in the produce industry.
