From 2019 to 2024 we had a Fair-Trade project where we organized and practiced direct and ethical trade of ecological coffee from small-scale producers in Mexico. During that time, we committed to offer the producers and their families the best possible prices for their coffee, and we also gave them economic advice so they could develop their business as direct suppliers to avoid the middleman prices and conditions.
