Empowering Women in Coffee: A Journey from Saskatoon to Costa Rica
Lets jump into Road Coffee's 1st fully female supply chain!
We want to share an inspiring tale of how Road Coffee, in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, connects with the legendary Ceci Genis and her groundbreaking Zalmari Coffee Estate in the beautiful Orisí Valley, Costa Rica. Hold on tight, as we embark on a journey that's inspirational, with a dash of caffeine-infused excitement!
At Road Coffee, we believe in creating a positive impact in every aspect of our business. Our Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) commitments drive us to be more than just a coffee supplier; we aim to cultivate change in systems and processes that empower women in the coffee sector. Ceci's achievements and commitment to uplifting women in the industry resonate deeply with our core values.
As Alisha Esmail, the founder of Road Coffee, reflects on her own journey, she draws inspiration from Ceci's work and is honored to collaborate with her to build a more economical and sustainable coffee supply chain. Alisha understands the importance of providing women with equal opportunities, supply chain access, and the chance to take up powerful roles in the coffee world.
Working directly with Ceci and the Zalmari Coffee Estate is a privilege we cherish. We're not just building a business relationship; we're nurturing a partnership that fosters change and progress. With every cup of coffee, we strive to create a ripple effect that reaches far beyond the borders of our beloved Saskatoon.
Ceci Genis has broken barriers and shattered glass ceilings in an industry that needed a breath of fresh air. Her unwavering determination and passion for coffee have had a transformative impact on her community, setting an example for the world to follow. The Zalmari Coffee Estate thrives not only as a source of exquisite coffee but also as a testament to the power of women's empowerment.
From the Prairies in Central Canada to Costa Rica, our partnership stands as a beacon of hope, lighting the path for a more inclusive and equitable coffee industry. We take pride in being a part of Ceci's journey and firmly believe that supporting such pioneers will lead us to a future filled with better coffee and a better world.
