👀 While it might not have been a topic of everyday conversation - before this year's rapid market change - the consistency of quality in cocoa products directly impacts the success of quality cocoa in the global market. 🌍 By recognizing the significance of consistent quality, cocoa producers are not just enhancing their own reputation, but ours and yours as a maker. 🛠️ Consistency ensures that the end consumer receives a reliable and expected product, building trust in the brand and the cocoa supply chain. 🧠 It's a subtle yet powerful way of advocating for the specialty cocoa industry as a whole and contributing to the broader recognition of cocoa-producing regions. 📉 Consistency of quality might seem like a given, but it's a challenge that requires constant attention and investment. 🔍 In an industry where trust is paramount, compromising quality could have severe consequences. 🔒 It's not just about reputation; it's about ensuring consumer confidence and safeguarding the entire supply chain. #beantobar #craftchocolate #highqualitycocoa #craftingmarkets #cocoatrust

I will now attempt to explain why Mzuzu Golden Coffee, a WFTO Verified and FI Certified, Value Added Coffee - was a game changer. Sadly they were decertified in 2018, just as we launched their roasted in country coffee. To date NO-ONE from the Fairtrade Foundation or Fairtrade International has attempted to resolve the issue of a VERY unfair decertification with us as it's NONE of our business! That is why we will keep on pushing for total transparency of the events that led up to two containers of pre-ordered Fairtrade certified raw green coffee beans being cancelled - leaving them in dire straits! Mzuzu were Fairtrade Certified, as a Cooperative, in 2009 and wanted to sell their own roasted coffee. Not just export the green bean, to be roasted by Commercial Licensees, who pay a Licence fee, to the Fairtrade Foundation for the pleasure of selling lots of Fairtrade Certified coffee, roasted out of country, PROUDLY displaying the Fairtrade Mark. The problem: The Fairtrade Foundation would not receive a Licence Fee from us because Mzuzu paid Fairtrade Africa a fee for the export of the finished product - surely that's Fair? As a WFTO Guaranteed Importer Member we decided it was imperative that we help them to access the market - in Scotland, a 'Fair Trade' Nation and worked with them to differentiate the packaging. This gave them a USP as THE FIRST Verified and Certified Coffee in the world. As a WFTO Guaranteed Importer Member we put the FI certification logo and the WFTO logo on the package to show that it was a Gold Standard Fair Trade product. Below explains why this was possible for us to do this. "WFTO also recognises other Fair Trade certification schemes that FTOs may rely on in their monitoring of their suppliers. A list of these Fair Trade schemes is published in the Handbook and FTOs do not need to include these suppliers in their Internal Monitoring Systems for suppliers. ECOCERT/IMO - Fair For Life FLO Cert SPP (FUNDEPPO) Naturland Fair Trade standards However, 'the FI system' is flawed due to the way it is set up to only export raw commodities so that the added value is at the end, not the beginning, of the supply chain. Decertification, at a time when they launched their OWN coffee, is very suspect and anyone interested in knowing more, please get in touch.

"At peak production in the mid-1950s, #Cuba exported more than 20,000 tonnes of #coffee per year (over 330,000 bags). However, following the Cuban Revolution, the nationalisation of the coffee industry and trade embargoes from the #United States, production and exports took a sharp downturn. Today, annual coffee production stands between 9,000 and 11,000 tonnes, and Cuba’s coffee sector faces challenges beyond the country’s legacy of a difficult geopolitical situation." To learn more about Cuba's coffee landscape, Jordan Montgomery speaks with Michele Cannone, Global Brand Director at Lavazza, who shares insights on coffee production and the steps producers are implementing to achieve global competitiveness. https://lnkd.in/eRha5azD
