Sustainable Expo

Using this event to benefit coffee producers and their communities

Since 2012, the SCA has employed a sustainable event strategy to reduce the environmental impact of Expo, which has included the purchase of carbon offsets. SCA is joining forces with Caravela Coffee to take decisive action in supporting producers facing environmental challenges - directing financial support to coffee farmers in Latin America, who will plant native trees that contribute to soil health, reduce erosion, and sequester carbon.

Sustainable Expo in Action

These initiatives are in partnership with Caravela Coffee, a Latin America green coffee exporter and importer and recognized leader in green coffee sustainability, Pacific Foods Barista Series, and Barista Attitude. These organizations support the SCA Sustainable Specialty Coffee Agenda and are working together to create an innovative offset strategy for SCA’s trade shows, with impact closer to coffee farms and landscapes, and as an avenue for promoting equitable value distribution across the coffee supply chain.
