A new partnership between Coffee Quality Institute (CQI) and the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) aims to enhance coffee quality and improve the lives of coffee producers. This agreement will see SCA contribute a portion of its annual education revenues to support CQI's vital work in coffee-growing regions. The funding comes at a crucial time when traditional sources of development assistance are dwindling, allowing CQI to expand its initiatives.
• CQI has over 20 years of experience in training coffee producers in more than 30 countries.
• The partnership was formalized during CQI's 25th Annual Luncheon at the Specialty Coffee Expo in Houston.
• SCA's financial commitment positions it as a key investor in CQI's mission.
• Both organizations share a vision of sustainable and equitable development in the coffee sector.
This collaboration is significant as it addresses the pressing need for support in the coffee industry. By investing in quality and sustainable practices, both CQI and SCA aim to create a better future for coffee producers and the global coffee community.
