"Sustainability is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."  
U.N. Commission on the Environment.

In addition to our efforts to support sustainability in the coffee producing countries, we also are committed to support sustainability at our local and regional offices. In 2007, S&D created the LEAFS committee to handle these initiatives. LEAFS (Leading Environmental Awareness for Sustainability) mission is to be leaders of change in the environmental awareness at S&D Coffee, through education of our employees, our customers and our suppliers and by the implementation of key values for sustainability:
  • Reducing the consumption of valuable resources
  • Using renewable and recyclable materials
  • Influencing our customers and suppliers to reduce and recycle
  • Evaluate, benchmark and seek accountability
