Sustainable Green Coffee

how to become a sustainable coffee trader

This training course is meant for you if you are about to start or work as a coffee roaster or trader. If you just want to learn more about sustainable green coffee, you are more than welcome as well. In the course we talk about the journey the bean makes from farmer to harbor. And what the effect of coffee production and consumption is on the climate, the living income and the living conditions of coffee farmers.

After the training, the participant will have knowledge about:

  • the colonial history of coffee
  • the different varieties
  • the different production methods
  • the effect of climate change
  • trade and transport
  • the difference between industrial coffee (trade) and specialty coffee (trade).
  • quality grading
  • the social, economic and environmental challenges in the coffee sector
  • all stakeholders
  • thirth party certifications

Your cappuccino is delicious, but is it fair?

In this training we will discuss the three factors that influence a sustainable coffee future:

  • Economy
  • Climate
  • Social conditions

We treat all the above topics in an interactive way with discussions, practical assignments and games.

We hope that we can inspire you so that after the training you will go home with various ideas with which you can implement what you have learned in your work practice as a coffee professional.
