Helping to ensure a healthy and prosperous supply chain, from coffee-growing communities in Latin America, Indonesia, and Africa, to manufacturing operations in China – it’s the right thing to do and it makes sense for our business.

This year, we expanded our efforts to foster sustainable business practices at every level of operations. We continued implementing our Set of Vendor Expectations, an initiative that clarifies our expectations for wages and benefits, labor rights, health and safety, and environmental responsibility in our supply chain. In coffee-growing communities, we deepened our commitment to health and economic self-sufficiency by using the results of current, on-the-ground research to guide our grantmaking.
