The farmers that grow and produce our coffee beans are incredibly important to us. Our Cafes are their livelihood. Our customers, who stop for a cup of coffee while shopping on Granville Island or Yaletown, are ensuring that our farmers around the world can support their families.
The farmers are the very start of our supply chain. So we want to support them in producing the greatest beans at a fair price, so we can pass on the quality to you and economy to them.
We currently are working hard to source our coffee direct from farmers in Kenya and around the world, through our non-profit NGO organization AGRODEV. This way we know the origin of our beans, and know that they have been produced through sustainable, fair, and ecologically sound methods. We are also working with our importing partners to select the best coffee from communities in other parts of the developing world, including:
Mexico, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Peru, Bolivia, Uganda
