This International Coffee Day, we are raising our cups as a team in support of Equal Origins’ Raise Your Cup campaign.

We’re raising our cups for the women who contribute to coffee every day: from producers and processors to leaders, educators, and professionals across the industry.

Today, we honor their work, recognize their contributions, and celebrate the women helping shape the future of coffee. 🤎
