At Algrano, we’ve always aimed big — not just making direct trade easy but changing the power dynamics in the coffee supply chain. After eight years, we're happy to share our first impact report. This isn't just about good intentions; it's about the real changes we’ve made and how they stack up against our goals.

We know that many coffee producers still struggle to get fair prices, even for high-quality coffee, because they don’t have direct access to the market. Our model changes that by connecting them directly with roasters and building genuine relationships. This boosts their earnings and gives them a real say in the sales process.

Our vision is simple: better market access, fairer prices, and long-term relationships. Unlike traditional intermediaries, Algrano acts as a service provider, supporting producer-roaster partnerships on equal footing. Our report shows how we achieve this with unique data and real stories. We hope it inspires you to dig deeper into your supply chain and take direct trade seriously. Give it a read, and you'll see what we mean.

The next few months are going to be key in figuring out if coffee prices stay high and just how tight supply will be. For now, green buyers might need to prepare for more price swings. Waiting it out is getting riskier, so a lot of roasters are already raising their own prices.
