We are proud and humbled to be among the nominees for the Partnership Award at REBOOT 2024 – Denmark's B2B sustainability event.
It is an award that pays tribute to companies that, through strong partnerships, promote the green transition and sustainability in the value chain.
This nomination is not only a recognition of our work, but also a tribute to our close collaboration with the Brazilian coffee cooperative Sancoffee.
Partnership across continents
We are particularly proud of this nomination because it highlights the value of strong partnerships – even when they span large geographical distances. Together with our Brazilian partners, we show that ambitious sustainability goals can be achieved when we work closely and strategically together.
Sancoffee is a cooperative company owned by Brazilian coffee farmers, which manages almost 10,000 hectares of coffee production. Sancoffee is - like CleverCoffee - certified B Corp.
In 2024, Sancoffee won the Specialty Coffee Association's Sustainability Award. They did this on the basis of their holistic work with responsibility throughout the value chain - both socially and environmentally.
Sancoffee is extremely skilled at measuring and reducing their CO2 consumption. Since 2020, they have sequestered more CO2 than they emitted, making them one of the only CO2-neutral coffee cooperatives in Brazil.
Sammen for en grønnere kaffeindustri
Igennem samarbejdet med Sancoffee har vi opnået noget helt særligt: produktionen af Danmarks første Net Zero kaffe – Nemlig vores IMPACT No. 01.
En typisk standardkaffe udleder 10,2 kg CO2 pr. kg kaffe. Med IMPACT No. 01 har vi reduceret CO2-udledningen med mere end 95% til under 0,4 kg CO2 pr. kg. Dette opfylder Science Based Targets-initiativets (SBTi) krav for Net Zero.
De resterende knap 5% udledninger har vi kompenseret med Verified Carbon Offsets, hvilket gør kaffen fuldt ud CO2-neutral.
Denne indsats betyder ikke kun meget for os, men også for vores kunder. Én kunde – en stor dansk finansiel virksomhed – sparede mere end 180 tons CO2 det første år, bare ved at skifte til vores kaffe.
Transparency in every single bag of coffee
One of the greatest strengths of the collaboration with Sancoffee is the high degree of traceability. Each and every bag of coffee comes with detailed data on its production and CO2 emissions. This gives our customers a unique opportunity to understand and document their impact.
The majority of all consumer coffee - for example the one you buy in a supermarket - cannot be traced back to the farm by the coffee companies. The coffee is bought and sold between so many different intermediaries, importers, exporters and large warehouses that you simply lose the connection and traceability to the place where the coffee is grown.
We deal directly with the coffee farm - and thus skip all the middlemen - therefore we have direct access to the processes that take place on the coffee farm. We know exactly where our coffee comes from and who we trade with.
Thanks to REBOOT
We would like to thank REBOOT for this recognition and at the same time send a big congratulations to the other nominees: Crateit and Bygma . We look forward to hearing more about your inspiring projects at the REBOOT event on 20-21. November, 2024.
Let's celebrate powerful partnerships driving positive change in the world! 🌍
