60% of global coffee supply comes from smallholder farmers.1
Farmers who have access to tools, technology, and knowledge are more likely to be profitable and to stick with farming.
5 countries produce 72% of the world’s coffee2
The world’s coffee supply is consolidating. Thriving origin diversity brings the economic benefits of coffee to farmers in more countries and gives roasters choices.
We need 25% more coffee by 20303
Estimated demand for coffee is steadily increasing while climate change puts more pressure on landscapes. More productive varieties can help us meet the challenge.
