Coffee is one of the largest traded commodities in the world after oil, aluminum, coal, and wheat. It is an addictive substance that much of the world relies on as a stimulant -- either as an economic export or a way to wake up in the morning.

This event will bring together stakeholders from across the coffee supply chain to discuss competing models of sustainability across the industry. Our featured panelists include:

  • Lesly Bronfield, Finca Far Away Down, Farm Owner
  • Laura Donnelly, Rainforest Alliance, Third-Party Certifier
  • Taylor Mork, Crop to Cup, Green Coffee Importer and Owner
  • Michael Pollack, Brooklyn Roasting Company, Green Coffee Buyer, Roaster and Owner
