Key Points:
- In April 2021, Bellwether signed the first-ever coffee contract based on Living Income Pricing in partnership with Heifer International and Sustainable Harvest.
- That pilot with ASOPEP in Colombia was called Verified Living Income , and set the stage for its current commitment to expand living income to Guatemala.
- Our goal at Bellwether is to expand Living Income Pricing across all of our supply chains by 2025," said Grayson Caldwell, senior sustainability manager at Bellwether Coffee.
- Long term, paying Living Income Pricing helps close the living income gap for farmers, ensuring economic stability in the Coffeelands.
