OUR BUYING STANDARDS

It’s really important for us to work with trusted partners in our supply chain who can provide us with honesty and traceability. We have created a set of guidelines to help us source coffee in a way we feel aligns with our values and beliefs. There are three core categories that we think outline the most important factors to consider when purchasing coffee: economic transparency, social relationship, and environmental efforts.

OUR CARBON IMPACT

Our Roaster:
We’ve recently switched to a new electric Typhoon roaster which allows us to significantly reduce our carbon footprint. We selected it for its capacity, efficiency, and to maintain the same high-quality roasting. This transition also marks a step toward our long-term goal of becoming carbon neutral, with a commitment to using 100% renewable electricity.

Our Packaging:
Our 250g bags are paper based and can be recycled with kerbside recycling or composted in your garden. We recommend storing your coffee in an airtight container like this one. Our 1kg bags are 70% wastemade (LDPE4) and recyclable with soft plastic at the supermarket. Please don't put them in your curbside recycling. The planet thanks you!

Buying Standards

Community Impact

The Yallah Buying Standards are a set of criteria to enable us to source coffee in a way we feel aligns with our values and principles.

Our impact work in coffee producing regions is directly linked with the communities we purchase coffee from. We want to see those communities prosper in all areas of their life, not just coffee production, and for the benefit of all within the community.

MEET THE PRODUCER

Smallholder Producers of Izuba

In a similar manner to the way Raw Material works in Rwanda, they rely on the support of local partners in Burundi. These companies are ethically aligned, with the immediate goal of distributing profits more equitably to producers, and paying station staff well above the government set market rate.

Last year, almost none of the households around Izuba washing station had health insurance. In Burundi this season, Raw Material have focussed on ensuring all families delivering cherries to us receive full health insurance. This initiative was revealed as the most effective and desired thing we could do from a long list of possible activities following interviews with the community.

Country of origin

Burundi

One of our favourite origins here in the roastery. Producers in Burundi, much like other African coffee growing countries, bring their freshly picked coffee to local mills for processing, keeping the quality consistent. A clean, aromatic coffee usually punctuated with rich berry notes.
