TRANSPARENCY
Last year, we released our first-ever annual Transparency Report and officially signed The Pledge. This milestone is vital in constructing a more equitable future for our industry. Green coffee buyers gain insight into prices paid for similar lots, while consumers precisely know the amount farmers receive. Additionally, producers develop a better understanding of the value of their coffees.
‘‘Greater transparency around coffee prices is good for the entire industry.’
DIVERSITY
At Caffenation, we aim to maintain transparency regarding both coffee and people. Who constitutes the Caffenation workforce, and who frequents our establishment to enjoy our coffee? This encompasses the size of our workforce as well as the diversity of age, gender, and roles within our team. Openly sharing information about our team composition aids us in progress, enhancing diversity, equity, and inclusion within our company. Concurrently, we seek our customer base to mirror our baristas working behind the counter – diverse and inclusive.
In the previous year, we conducted an anonymous survey to provide a safe platform for everyone to express themselves candidly on specific subjects. This allowed individuals to voice what they had always wanted to say but perhaps never felt confident enough to articulate. Through this process, we gained valuable insights into our team, company, and even ourselves.
SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability in coffee is complex, but by transparently sharing our operations and future plans, we raise awareness about the issues we aim to address. At Caffènation, we prioritize daily reflection on sustainability. Financial stability for farmers is essential, but self-examination is crucial. How can our coffee roasting methods contribute? We go beyond waste separation to make a meaningful impact.
