1084 Madeleine Longoria Garcia - The Cost Of Coffee Production - The Daily Coffee Pro Podcast by Map It Forward

The Daily Coffee Pro Podcast by MAP IT FORWARD

This is the 3rd episode of a five-part series on The Daily Coffee Pro by Map It Forward Podcast, hosted by Map It Forward founder, Lee Safar.

Our guest for this series is US-based industry veteran, Madeleine Longoria Garcia. Having returned from the SCA Expo in Chicago, this series is focused on exploring 'The Conversations We're Not Having in Coffee That We Should Be Having".

In this episode of the series, Madeleine and Lee discuss the importance of coffee growers gaining confidence in dictating their pricing and choosing their customers for sustainability and profit.

The episode condemns the practices of buying coffee at prices below the cost of production, touches on the impact of colonial roots on pricing structures, and the need for financial education among growers.

It also highlights the risks of manipulative discount requests from brands and suggests that businesses struggling financially should fail with dignity.

The dialogue underlines the necessity for honesty and integrity in the industry, critiques current crisis points, and teases future discussions on stakeholder health within the supply chain.
