Building a better coffee world starts with us.
At Mercon Specialty, people are at the heart of all we do. This involves recognizing the hard work of producers, specialists, operators, and everyone else in the coffee industry. We recognize the need to empower women, assist producers, strengthen coffee communities, and form meaningful relationships. Our reach goes beyond merely providing exceptional green coffee, as we take pride in building lasting partnerships with amazing people.
Our Impact
Leading Innovation Farmer Traceability
Mercon's LIFT initiative, launched in 2014, empowers coffee producers to enhance their quality of life and productivity sustainably. The program offers specialized training, tools, and agronomist support under three pillars: Productivity, Social Development, and Environment. The LIFT Index digitally evaluates farmer performance, ensuring consistent, high-quality yields.
Empowering Women
Producers
We firmly believe in genuine women empowerment, acknowledging the profound impact women have on the green coffee industry. From producers and operators to quality specialists, these extraordinary women hail from diverse corners of the globe, and we take pride in collaborating with them. Through our curated selection of woman-produced green coffee, we aim to honor and celebrate their invaluable contributions, while also making their exceptional coffee accessible to all.
Seeds for Progress
Seeds for Progress is a non- profit organization that promotes education by investing in school infrastructure, teachers’ trainings and technological equipment in Guatemala.
As part of our commitment to the development of coffee-growing communities in Guatemala, we have pledged to donate 2 cents for every pound of coffee we sell. This means that every Mercon Specialty coffee you purchase will have an impact in the coffee communities the Foundation serves.
