How can we guarantee that coming generations retain access to affordable quality food? Tackling the inter-related challenges of food insecurity, climate change, biodiversity loss and economic inequality requires collective action.
We join forces with smallholder farmer organisations, companies, authorities and other food system actors. We create innovative ways of accessing, trading, distributing and producing nutritious, quality food. We ensure the sustainability of our actions by developing solid and inclusive business relationships, so that no one is left behind.
What does inclusive purchasing look like in practice, and how can it contribute to a more equitable coffee sector for everyone involved?
In this publication, we explored actual business relationships, looking at pricing and contracts, risk sharing, and practices that support coffee production, access to finance, women, youth, joint innovation, transparency and accountability. Based on this, we identified high-potential best practices for private sector companies, support organisations and government actors to address inequalities in the coffee sector.
