The UK’s FIRST Blockchain Coffee

Working with the Farmer Connect© platform, UCC Coffee with Orang Utan Coffee are the UK’s first blockchain coffee brand, helping to protect farming communities, rainforests, and orangutan populations in Indonesia with technology designed to fight unwanted changes at their source and champion a fair living wage. Part of the global Ueshima Coffee Company, UCC Coffee UK & Ireland  have, for many years, created and managed coffee experiences for the most dynamic businesses in foodservice, hospitality and retail. 

As part of their portfolio, they manage white-labelled coffee brands for some of the UK’s biggest high-street brands, alongside their own range of certified and sustainable-first coffees, including Grand Café in partnership with Conservation International, ThreeSixty, which includes Rainforest Alliance and Fairtrade blends, and Orang Utan which has been licensed under UCC since 2016. Now more than ever, UK customers are savvy to the quality and consistency of out of home coffee, thanks to the boom of in-home coffee offers becoming more affordable and in turn, making consumers more appreciative of good coffee. 83% of coffee drinkers surveyed in November 2020 agreed that the quality of coffee is important – an increase of 15% vs 2018. Takeaway /to-go coffee drinks now make up 55% of the market.

Orang Utan Coffee in partnership with Farmer Connect are leading the way for the future of supply chains in the sector, having snatched both the Food and Drink and top prize of “Team of the Year” at the Supply Chain Excellence awards
