Algrano’s model provides transparency. We do not speculate like traders, and are not opaque about costs.
We can help you source coffees directly in a number of ways, from finding you great producers and ideal coffees, to quality assurance, shipping, import and storage and financing. You choose which services you want for each lot you source, and Algrano’s service fee adjusts accordingly.
The fee is directly tied to the overall volume you source through Algrano, and automatically decreases as you source more through the marketplace.
Matchmaking fees apply when Algrano finds a new producer you trade with. The fee is tied to the FOB price and decreases steeply with every year you keep sourcing through the same producer, rewarding long term relationships.
Algrano's Q-graders independently evaluate the coffee when it's listed, before it's shipped and once it lands. This ensures the coffee has the same characteristics that made you choose it. If for any reason there is a quality issue, the risk falls on Algrano, not the roaster. This is a key part of the Discovery to Delivery service, and the fee component is calculated as a small percentage of the FOB price.
This is what Algrano’s Shipping Service fee is based on, and is also a component of the Discovery to Delivery fee. It covers any services in exporting, importing, shipping, in housing and insurance of your coffee as it travels across the globe. Tied to the volume of a contract and gets cheaper as you contract more.

Here’s a recap of what we saw, heard, and learned—or at least what can be shared in public…
