Meet Pergamino

In Colombia, we are proud to partner with Pergamino, a progressive, family-owned company, dedicated to producing, sourcing and exporting exceptional coffee.

Through the Umuvumu Project, MCM’s roasting partners will have the opportunity to donate directly to the children of Umuvumu Kindergarten by raising money through bean sales and promotion of the project.

Maraba Cooperative

In the local Kinyarwanda language, ‘Abahuzamugambi Ba Kawa’ means ‘Together we work the coffee’. The name is fitting, as the cooperative has played a key role in the rebuilding of Rwanda’s coffee industry.

Why Transparency is important (and difficult) and what we are doing about it.

MCM is joining a growing group of concerned and committed importers and roasters who wants to hold the industry to a higher standard and drive more transparency across the supply chain. In this post, we explore why transparency is important (and why it’s hard), and what we are doing to build a more sustainable future for coffee.

How we buy coffee

Melbourne Coffee Merchants believes that everyone in the coffee chain can and should prosper, and that a commitment to paying producers good prices for coffee quality and suitability, regardless of the commodity market fluctuations, is the best way to ensure a sustainable and viable future for coffee farming. We have built our business around these beliefs and stand firmly behind our buying practices.
