March is B Corp Month, a time to celebrate businesses that go beyond profit to balance purpose and accountability. As a B Corp-certified coffee roastery, we are part of a global movement using business as a force for good.
At 918 Coffee Co, we believe that every cup of coffee has the power to make a difference—not just in terms of taste but in how it impacts people and the planet. That’s why we chose to become a Certified B Corporation, joining a community of businesses that meet the highest standards of social and environmental responsibility.
So, what does it really mean to be a B Corp coffee supplier, and why should you care? Let’s dive into the benefits and why making the switch matters.
🌍 What Is a B Corp?
A Certified B Corporation is a business that meets rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and legal accountability. Unlike traditional businesses, B Corps commit to:
✔ Prioritising people and the planet alongside profit✔ Holding themselves legally accountable for their impact✔ Being transparent about business operations and sustainability efforts✔ Continuously improving their impact on the environment and community
This certification isn’t just a stamp—it’s a commitment to better business practices and a more sustainable future.
☕ The Benefits of a B Corp Coffee Supplier
1️⃣ Sustainable Sourcing & Ethical Supply Chains
As a B Corp, we ensure that our coffee is sourced responsibly, supporting ethical farming practices and fair wages for farmers. We work closely with suppliers who align with our values, ensuring that every bean is ethically traded and sustainably grown.
2️⃣ Eco-Friendly Roasting with Our Eco Roast Technology
Traditional coffee roasting methods can be energy-intensive and wasteful. That’s why we developed Eco Roast technology, which uses waste coffee grounds to create biofuel for roasting fresh coffee. This innovation helps us reduce carbon emissions and minimize waste, making our coffee one of the most sustainable choices available.
3️⃣ Zero-Waste and Circular Economy Practices
We don’t just stop at roasting sustainably. We actively engage in zero-waste initiatives, from compostable packaging to closed-loop recycling programs. Our approach ensures that we contribute to a circular economy, where waste is repurposed instead of discarded.
4️⃣ Supporting Communities & Giving Back
Being a B Corp means we actively support our local and global communities. Whether it’s through charity partnerships, community outreach, or fair wages for coffee farmers, we ensure that our success positively impacts the people behind every cup.
5️⃣ Transparency & Accountability
As part of our B Corp commitment, we undergo rigorous assessments to ensure that we maintain the highest standards. This means you can trust that our sustainability and ethical claims aren’t just marketing fluff—they’re backed by real, measurable action.
