Consider the Source.
Practical expertise is always more valuable than theoretical knowledge. We learned the craft and trade of coffee by working in the coffee industry. We know the obstacles and opportunities of sourcing, product development and quality control because we managed and executed these functions directly.
Whether consulting or performing product analysis we help our clients understand the challenges of making product decisions on price, quality, availability, and relationship. We broaden the scope of the typical coffee consulting and quality assurance projects to encompass financial and physical risk controls often overlooked by coffee consultants. Our consulting and educational services are derived directly from our functional management experience and operational successes in the coffee business. At our world-class testing laboratory, we provide a comprehensive technical education on the importance of quality assurance, the practical application of testing methods, and how to interpret the analysis results.
Consider our perspective as an independent company providing unbiased analysis and consulting. Consider methods of analysis that are not influenced by contract terms, supplier identities, or sourcing relationships. Consider the performance of your suppliers. Consider information acquired and who presents it. Consider our history of success.
Our unbiased approach to coffee testing is not influenced by the identities or relationships of your supply chain, the contract price for products, or the terms of your supply contract. Our approach to consulting is to identify the best solutions and operational opportunities for your business. Without data all that remains are opinions and business decision are not recommended to be made based on opinions.
