Coffee in 2025
As many of you have seen in the news, green coffee prices have surged in the last three months and are now trading at historically high levels - supply is down for numerous reasons while demand is up. As a result, price increases from all coffee roasters throughout the industry are guaranteed, along with shrinking pack sizes from some (our pack sizes will remain the same).

The current record high green coffee prices are well above the FLO International fair trade minimum price and our FLO International fair trade premiums apply above the coffee futures market (C market) whenever it is above the minimum. Remember that fair trade is a safety net when the market is low but that fair trade premiums apply above the market price when it is high.

The FLO International minimum prices and premiums that we pay are significantly higher than the weaker “Fair Trade USA” certification (which certifies coffee from large, private plantations and has not implemented any increases to its minimum prices or premiums since 2011). We broke away from Fair Trade USA when they began certifying private estate plantations in 2011.

We evaluate our green coffee costing every month and only pass through price increases that are necessary to retain the solvency of our business. While we will all be paying more for coffee, the reality is that it must become more expensive in order for it to provide a sustainable livelihood for coffee producers around the world.

We are excited to share that our 2024 Fair for Life fair trade recertification came back with a score of 101.4% (yes, there are some bonus points available which account for the very high score). Our B-Corporation status (since 2010), CarbonFree certification (since 2008), annual non-profit donations, energy-efficient business operations and high-quality employee benefits all added to the standard fair trade purchasing metrics used by the Fair for Life inspector who said it was the highest score that he had ever given.

It is YOU, our loyal customers, who have co-created our 22-year history of roasting the finest fair trade organic coffee available and supporting the same grower cooperatives on an ongoing basis. Thank YOU for making this possible!
