Where We Started
& Where We're Going
Westrock Coffee began by partnering on-location with independent coffee farmers in East Africa with the belief that growth is an inevitable byproduct of investments in infrastructure, farmer development, product and supply chain innovation, and technological advancement. Our hands-on approach to working with our farmer partners has led us to improving economic, environmental, and social standards for people around the world while expanding our offerings to our customers.
Today, we supply customers across five continents with products and solutions to ensure the beverages we offer support their demands, the farmer with whom we partner, and all involved throughout the supply chain. Based on this model and a strategic approach, we have enhanced efficiencies, increased our innovative product set, and expanded globally in order to improve the lives of farmers in 35 origin countries, and fuel the success of our valued customers.
