Discover Cafédirect

Get to know the people, places and partnerships behind our coffee, discover more than 30 years of doing business differently, and learn how to get more from every cup.

Cafédirect started in 1991, when a collapse in coffee prices was leaving growers without a fair share of the value they created. Four organisations came together to do things differently – and we’ve been challenging the way the coffee industry works ever since.
