Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The funding will support the launch of a new end-to-end coffee platform and a roasting-as-a-service model. This platform allows businesses to compare green coffees online, track costs from farm to cup, and access Scope 3 emissions data. The pilot program is scheduled to launch next month with businesses in Yorkshire and London.
