While we here at the online coffee shop know of the great importance of coffee in our daily lives there are some interesting facts about the powerful presence of coffee the world over. For example, as Fairtrade coffee suppliers we are proud of the fact that Fairtrade coffee beans are the most important cash crop in many Third World countries. What this means to the families that benefit from the crops is surely inspiring in nature.

Another jaw dropping piece of information is that the primary source of income for more than 100,000 rural green coffee suppliers is the coffee alone. Such a strong impact is simply astounding. The awareness of the progress which is put into motion through the virtually effortless act of purchasing coffee is nothing less than humbling.
