Volcafe, the coffee business of ED&F Man, has been trading coffee since 1851. Today, we provide beans for 80 billion cups each year and there is only one thing we prioritise above coffee itself – partnership. We aim to be the world’s best coffee partner by fostering a thriving, sustainable coffee business for all.
For our customers, we provide access to all the major coffee producing origins, from individual farmers selling a few kilos of coffee cherries in Papua New Guinea to large plantations in Brazil that deal in hundreds of tonnes of export-ready product. Our long-term customers value our efficiency, innovation, dependability, and market insight.
For our suppliers, many of whom we have known for generations, we provide certainty and support. Our farmer support programme Volcafe Way works directly with farmers to train them in sustainable production techniques and good agricultural practices.
Volcafe works through offices in 15 origin and 10 destination countries, operating under local and specialised brand identities that are all part of the Volcafe family.
