„The Fair Trade minimum price for organic coffee is $1.41 per pound, resulting in more income and improved health care, education and housing for coffee farming families. Additionally, the Fair Trade label means that farmers are given direct access to U.S. markets, which eliminates many intermediaries; that farmers are provided credit and signed contracts so they can plan for the long-term; and that the coffee was grown using eco-friendly techniques.Despite a strong commitment to the Fair Trade philosophy, the double-certified Green Mountain Coffees that will be offered at Wild Oats will be priced consistently with current coffee offerings in the stores. In addition, a number of Green Mountain's Fair Trade coffees have been highly rated by independent third-party specialty coffee tasters. Therefore, consumers will be receiving the value-added benefits associated with organic and Fair Trade coffee, including exceptional quality, at the same price they are paying for a pound or cup of coffee in Wild Oats stores today.“

Tea & Coffee 04/04 - Green Mountain Coffee Roasters: Doing Well by Doing Good (#)

„Mitch Pinheiro, who follows GMCR stock for Janney Montgomery, is impressed with Green Mountain’s “disciplined management team that has a strong potential to take a regional product and turn it into a national brand.” Pinheiro, who owns GMCR shares himself, says that most coffee companies get into supermarkets by paying slotting fees, but that Green Mountain has gotten onto the shelves strictly through quality, demand, and a socially responsible image. Pinheiro recently distressed Bob Stiller, however, by switching from a “buy” to a “hold” recommendation, asserting that ExxonMobile may be rethinking their commitment to sell Green Mountain Coffee. “On the contrary,” says Stiller. “While anything can happen, we have a great working relationship with them and the impact of losing them was significantly overstated.” He says he is sure that the Exxon business is as strong as ever.“

We have consistently found the Indian coffees from the Pearl Mountain Estate of Chikmagalur to be the best Plantation (Indian grade designation for wet-processed arabica) to be the best in the cup. In fact, coffee was introduced to India in the Chikmagalur District of the Karnakata State by Muslim pilgrim Bababudan Sahib in the year 1610! The cup is very pleasant: It is a mild coffee overall, fairly straightforward and (in a good way) simple.“

We have excavated around six water tanks covering an area ranging from one hectare to two hectares, along various slopes of the coffee hill.“
