Did you know that coffee farmers typically only earn 7 – 10% of the retail price of coffee? While coffee as a consumable product pertains to a sense of luxury, the value chain from bean to cup is often far from it and underlined with exploitative practices. Think before you sip, contemplate your caffeine and let’s brew a brighter future together. www.coffeemm.co.za #coffee #africa #southafrica #intentionalbusiness #local
