Crush Coffee Co. only purchases coffee from woman owned coffee farms and now, importers. ☕️💗🌱
I am so excited to share that although it has been quiet publicly, it hasn’t been without reason.
At Crush we needed to reset our GPS and do some of the work that is required behind the scenes as we get ready to grow across the country and across borders.
Our focus this spring and summer has been to:
1. find the perfect bean with the perfect profile for the perfect cup of Crush coffee - the rich, velvety, chocolatey medium roast that the women in our community have shown a passion for
2. build long-term relationships with women owned businesses who want to run with us - businesseses that value women’s health, wealth, and prosperity and
have the desire and ability to support our big vision.
Over the past several months we have been working closely with Kapeh Utz, a woman owned coffee importer to make all of this happen.
When we first connected with the KU team it was clear they had both the desire and ability to support our big vision, and grow with us.
Their care, concern, and kindness has been refreshing and reassuring. It means so much to have these epic, knowledgeable women in our corner - women who 100% understand why it is important to us that we protect our vision and mission, no matter the cost.
After a trip to Guatemala this February I knew we needed to switch gears to provide support to the family farm we visited. Ironically, the KU team had visited this same farm only weeks before. Of course, that meant everything to me.
Connections and personal relationships matter so much in our big wide open world.
How crazy that three teams from around the world - Kansas USA. Ontario Canada and Santiago, Guatemala - have come together with a common vision to bring you a cup of coffee that is rich in flavour and in purpose.
Thank you for your patience as we prep for the BEST fall and winter YET!
