This Fairtrade Fortnight (25th February to 9th March) Orchid is donating 10p from every cup of its Cafeology Fairtrade coffee sold to the Fairtrade Foundation. Orchid has a strong commitment to ethics and stocks only Fairtrade coffee and hot drinks throughout its 200 strong
invested estate.
“We only serve Fairtrade hot drinks because we believe it’s important to guarantee Third World farmers a fair deal,” said Adam Bowers, Marketing Manager at Orchid. “Fairtrade Fortnight provides the perfect opportunity for us to further demonstrate this commitment through the charitable donation of 10p per cup coffee sold. We will be providing the best coffee in town at the best value – so everyone’s a winner!”

Bryan Unkles, Managing Director of Orchid’s coffee partner Cafeology explains; “It is a mark of Orchid Pubs social responsibility that they have chosen exclusively Fairtrade hot beverages. The coffee has been carefully selected for Orchid using the finest Fairtrade Arabica beans from the Cosurca ooperative in Colombia and Coocafe in Costa Rica. This medium/dark roasted coffee produces a rich, sweet flavour balanced with notes of toffee and caramel, perfect to enjoy at any time of the day”.
