  „The combined expertise of these producer-growers and our roaster-owners allows Cooperative Coffees to offer the highest quality coffees from these small farmer groups while directly supporting our shared social and environmental philosophies. By trading directly with the farmers, Cooperative Coffees can pay premium prices to the farmers and still offer competitive prices to the roaster-owners.“

  „Through fair trade, the chain of intermediaries is broken and the payment is more direct: small farmer / farmers' cooperative / coffee company / store / consumer. The guaranteed payment ($1.26/lb) is established to not only cover the cost of production, but to create a profit. Included in the purchase price is a premium that the co-op must use to directly benefit the community.“

What Goes Up Might Come Down? What Goes Up Might Come Down?

  „A tree planted by a farmer today will not yield a crop for another three to five years, so coffee growers have to be both agronomist and seer. It stands to reason that coffee growers want to plant only to the extent that their harvest will be a profitable one, so tracking the trends in coffee consumption as well as the global coffee yields become key considerations when deciding how much to plant.“
