Responsibly Sourced, Traceable Coffee: IMPACT Verified
At the heart of IMPACT is our sustainability standard, IMPACT Verified. IMPACT Verified coffees are responsibly sourced and traceable and align with all relevant regulatory measures (including EUDR), while assuring compliance with recognized sustainability standards.
IMPACT Verified is based on the Coffee Sustainability Reference Code (Coffee SR Code) and has been recognized by the Global Coffee Platform as Coffee SR Code equivalent, 2nd party assurance. This recognition provides confidence that IMPACT Verified coffee is produced and processed in accordance with global environmental, social and economic sustainability standards.
To obtain IMPACT Verified status, farms and facilities are assessed based on compliance with a set of supply chain practices, or indicators, aligned with the Global Coffee Platform:
For a coffee to be claimed as ‘responsibly sourced’, all farmers and facilities in the supply chain it is sourced from must comply with 100% of the 11 mandatory Critical Indicators and the required number of the 71 Improvement Indicators (at least 50% at the first audit, with continuous improvement in subsequent verifications).
Supply chains are audited by a third party every 3 years, during harvest season to properly assess the adoption of best practices.
Go Further with IMPACT Beyond
