Nespresso has developed its own program to ensure fair treatment of coffee farmers – the Nespresso AAA Sustainable Quality™ program.
The program was launched in 2003 in collaboration with the Rainforest Alliance to help protect the future supply of the highest quality coffees.
In this program, Nespresso works with more than 150,000 coffee farmers in 18 countries to sustainably improve local growing and living conditions.
To do this, Nespresso builds direct, long-term relationships with farmers, helps them adopt and implement sustainable coffee farming practices, and buys coffee from the same coffee farmers year after year - with 95% of coffee purchases at or above Fairtrade Minimum Price*. We also invest in programmes such as pension savings plans and insurance to ensure that coffee farming is a profitable business for future generations of farmers.
Today, we already source over 95% of our coffee from the Nespresso AAA Sustainable Quality™ Program. More than half of our coffee is certified by Rainforest Alliance, Fairtrade and/or organic certified.
