SOURCE: Fair Trade USA

DESCRIPTION:

About the Event
Join Fair Trade USA virtually on September 28, 2021 at 9am PDT/12 EDT for a coffee jolt to kickstart your day and celebrate International Coffee Day! Tune in to listen to award-winning Barista, Sam Spillman, as she takes us through a tasting of four high quality Fair Trade Certified private branded coffees.

Learn about coffee profiles, regions, sourcing, and how retailers are realizing their CSR goals and driving sales through their partnership with Fair Trade USA in this free Zoom event.

Why attend?
Just one cup of Fair Trade Certified coffee has the power to do more! In 2020, our coffee sales generated $30 million in Community Development Funds, helping coffee-producing communities invest in projects of their choosing that improve productivity, product quality, access to clean water, healthcare and so much more.

Awareness of social issues are at a tipping point – 80% of consumers indicate that sustainability is essential. As savvy consumers call on retailers and brands to pivot and provide products with purpose, fair trade can increase customer trust while also providing resilient supply chains that help you deliver on your CSR goals.

You will also hear directly from the Fair Trade USA team about the program and the impact it delivers at the farm level and in your business. After the tasting and talk, you'll also have the opportunity to network with peers to stay ahead of market trends.
