Workshop Description
Pricing decisions across the supply chain have a direct measurable impact on the livelihoods, resilience, and prosperity of coffee producing communities. This workshop gives roasters and other coffee enterprises the tools and insights to assess the impact of their pricing strategies on smallholder producers welfare. Participants will explore impactful pricing models—such as long-term contracts, living income benchmarks, community investment and traceable price guarantees, among others—that go beyond c-market rates and business as usual models, to provide meaningful support and incentives for coffee producers.
Designed for roasters of all sizes, this workshop helps participants assess and adapt pricing practices aligned with business goals and producer prosperity. Through practical exercises and open-source tools, attendees will gain a solid understanding of the data needed to evaluate price impact, develop strategies to work with supply chain partners to assess impact, and craft communication tools that raise awareness with employees and end consumers. By the end of the session, roasters will have the skills to assess and monitor the impact of their pricing strategies, using this insight as a pivotal tool to build stronger, more resilient supply chain.
