„LONG BEACH, CA - The Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA) supports the efforts of Oxfam International to raise awareness of the social, environmental, and economic impacts of the current crisis on coffee farmers world-wide. The long-term viability of the specialty coffee industry is dependent upon the sustainability of those who produce high-quality coffee. For this reason, it is in the best interest of specialty coffee roasters and retailers to build long-term relationships that provide fair prices to coffee producers.“

„This was a central theme at the Specialty Coffee Association of America’s (SCAA) Annual Conference which took place in Boston this past week. Green Mountain Coffee Roasters hosted over 90 guests, most arriving directly from the SCAA Conference. Invitees to Green Mountain Coffee’s “Intercambio,” or “exchange” included primarily representatives from coffee producer and non-profit organizations with which the Company has developed long-term relationships. In addition, Green Mountain Coffee invited processors, exporters, importers, and others who help supply the Company with its high quality coffee, to participate in a full day of sessions that encouraged sharing of success stories and other information helpful in dealing with the current coffee crisis.“

„ In addition to the annual meeting, co-op members gather informally at the yearly Specialty Coffee Association of America (SCAA) Conference, they communicate via e-mail and phone, and they travel together to origin as often as possible. Origin trips have become more frequent and better attended over the past year. Last year, half of the members traveled to Mexico and Guatemala, and this year, almost everyone went to either Ethiopia, Mexico, Guatemala, or Nicaragua.“
