2026 Impact Report

The good we can measure.

Every year we publish where we stand across the four things we've committed to: the coffee and the farmers who grow it, opportunity for our partners, the communities we sit in, and the planet we borrow from. Numbers first. The uncomfortable ones included.

Coffee & farmers

100% ethically sourced — and reinvesting in the people who grow it.

100%
ethically sourced coffee, verified
100M
coffee trees donated to farmers by 2025
$100M
Global Farmer Fund committed

farmer support centers worldwide

Climate is already reshaping where coffee can grow. Our agronomy centers give farmers rust-resistant varietals and open-source growing data at no cost — because a supply chain that doesn't take care of its first mile doesn't have a last one.

Opportunity

Every partner has a stake.

18 wks
paid parental leave, all partners
17,000
College Achievement Plan graduates
Day 1
health coverage & equity eligibility
100%
tuition covered for a first degree

We call employees partners because they own part of the company through equity grants. This year we closed our gender pay gap to within 1% globally and published the methodology so anyone can check our work.

Community

A store is a neighbor.

1.4M
volunteer hours by partners
$21M
to local community grants
340
community stores in underserved areas
6.1M
meals from surplus food rescued

Our FoodShare program routes unsold food to local pantries at the end of every day instead of the dumpster. It's not charity accounting — it's a standing operating procedure at every company-operated store.

Environment

Down 17% — and honest about the rest.

−17%
Scope 1+2 emissions vs. 2019
−9%
water use per beverage vs. 2019
72%
stores diverting waste from landfill
2030
target: halve carbon, water & waste
Where we're behind: Scope 3 — the beans, the milk, the drive to the store — is 96% of our footprint and the hardest to move. We're not there yet, and we won't pretend otherwise.
