Second container of directly shipped green coffee arrives at Roastology, Sheffield, from Costa Rica

Today marked the arrival of our second container of directly shipped green coffee from our producer partner Roberto Mata in Costa Rica at our Sheffield roastery.

One year ago we took control of the shipping management of coffee from Roberto’s farm, enabling us to ensure sustainability in each aspect of this supply chain.

After travelling by sea, the 20-tonne shipment travels through London’s Gateway port. The port’s rail links means we can slash the shipment’s carbon footprint by 50% compared to road haulage.

It was then all hands on deck for Teamology to unload the coffee after its 5,377 mile journey. It’s a really special feeling for us seeing the coffee arrive as it reaffirms the 16-year-long personal relationship we have with Roberto. Pura Vida!
