## Sustainability story

We're a female founded, small batch speciality coffee roastery. We roast in small batch to reduce waste and to guarantee freshness. Our green beans are sourced through DR Wakefield, a B Corp who focus primarily on quality and social responsibility. Our home compostable packaging tells a story of our SE London roots, and the local area where we both roast the beans and in turn brew our coffee in our flagship cafe. We focus on small, local suppliers for our cafe and we supply our beans to lots of local business, keeping community at the heart of our brand. As a young brand, it is really important for us to recognise the impact we have on the environment and ways to improve our footprint. It's a privilege to be carbon neutral, always bettering our practises and learning ways to improve the way our beans go from green, to roasted, to brewed and served in homes and cafes around the UK.

## Reduction plans

- **Scope 3** — We plan to reduce emissions associated with upstream shipping by organizing our warehouse to be able to hold higher quantities of stock.

- **Scope 3** — Reduce employee commuting emissions by 100% for all employees by incentivising walking or using electric vehicles for all commuting. (source: Employee commuting, target: Q3 2024, completion: 0%)
