Committed to a better world

Our Pledge

We are committed to protecting our planet by supporting sustainable farming practices and safeguarding the future of our rainforests.

Our Mission Statement

At Trading Post Coffee Roasters, our mission is to provide exceptional, artisan coffee while prioritising sustainability, ethical practices, and community engagement. We are committed to sourcing the highest quality beans from around the world, ensuring each step from farm to cup is conducted with transparency and respect for both the environment and the farmers. 

Our dedication to sustainability is demonstrated through our Rainforest Alliance and Soil Association organic certifications, reflecting our commitment to environmentally and socially responsible farming practices. By adhering to these standards, we ensure that our coffee production supports biodiversity, fair wages, and sustainable land use. We embrace the principles of the circular economy by partnering with local businesses to repurpose by-products that would otherwise end up in landfill. This collaborative approach reduces waste and supports innovative uses of coffee grounds and other materials by transforming them into the very tables we serve our food and coffee on in our coffee houses.

In our coffee houses, we offer a menu with a strong emphasis on vegan and vegetarian dishes, as well as allergen-friendly options. This inclusivity allows us to cater to a diverse range of dietary needs, making our spaces welcoming to all, as well as opting for plant-based ingredients where possible to reduce our environmental impact.

Through our passion for coffee and dedication to sustainable practices, we strive to minimise our ecological footprint and promote a positive impact on coffee-growing communities. Our goal is to continually innovate and share the rich, diverse flavours of our expertly roasted beans with coffee enthusiasts everywhere.

By fostering a culture of quality, sustainability, and ethical responsibility, we aim to be a trusted and cherished part of our customers' daily lives.  

The Right Partnership

The Rainforest Alliance

The Rainforest Alliance is working to solve some of the most pressing social and environmental issues of our time—including the climate crisis—by changing the way the world produces and consumes. When you choose ‘Rainforest Alliance Certified’ Trading Post Coffee, you are supporting the farmers who are looking after their workers and our natural resources – ensuring their communities have healthier and safer places to live and work.

From fighting deforestation and climate change to building economic opportunities and better working conditions for rural communities, the Rainforest Alliance is working to solve urgent environmental and social challenges like child labour, gender inequality and discrimination. The RFA works to achieve better livelihoods for farmers, who are protecting natural resources by using land, water and energy carefully.

Farmers on RFA-certified farms use fewer artificial fertilisers and pesticides, preventing pollution and managing waste. They learn how to preserve forested and protected areas, which in turn helps support the biodiversity of plants and animals alike.

Planet-conscious Coffee

Certified Organic Coffee

We're proud to say that our Green Monkey beans are certified organic by The Soil Association. Grown using natural fertilisers that promote plant growth without harming the environment with synthetic alternatives, organic farming practices protect soil microorganisms, which play a crucial role in making nutrients available to the plants. In addition to healthier plants, healthy soil can also enhance the flavour and our shade-grown Green Monkey organic coffee boasts a complex and delicious flavour profile thanks to its healthy soil structure, nutrient content, and microbial activity.

To achieve organic certification, our Green Monkey coffee meets the strict standards set by the UK Soil Association, ensuring that our product is produced with environmentally sustainable practices and that farmers and workers are treated fairly. So not only is our organic coffee better for the environment and the people involved in producing it, but it also provides a rich and flavourful cup of coffee that you can feel good about enjoying.

Our Pledge

Sustainability is at the heart of all we do - and as a company, we pledge to work on further improving our sustainability credentials wherever possible. Here's just a few of our priorities:
