Our responsibility right from the beginning

Sustainability is the combination of understanding and chances.

Our activities in the cultivation countries

We are visiting the cultivation areas worldwide. This enables us to support the farmers and their families and allow them to earn an improved income by placing long-term-contracts. While visiting our coffee experts survey the green bean qualities as well.
Fairness encourages sustainability and quality

Our corporate culture is characterised by responsible, sustainable action and fair cooperation in all ranks. This is of course also valid for the purchase of green coffee which we mostly procure from countries with small farming structures. With the main use of highly valued Arabica green coffee varieties we contribute to the improvement of the income situation in the countries of origin. The small farmers realise higher gains with the cultivation and sale of Arabica than of the lower quality Robusta varieties.
Long-standing partnership since 1992

Already since the founding of TransFair in 1992 Schirmer Kaffee has been Fairtrade certified and has supported the small farmers in the countries of origin through the purchase and marketing of Fairtrade certified coffee.
