This morning we received our Rainforest Alliance certificate, certifying Satemwa for tea production. Unfortunately the auditors visited in October when we were not harvesting coffee as a result they were unable to do their ‘chain of custody’ audit and we can’t be certified for coffee production at this stage.
This will compliment our existing Utz and Fairtrade certificates both in different markets, but also our operations on the ground. Rainforest as the name suggests, as well as covering workers rights issues, health and safety etc has a bias towards protection of the environment. This is expressed in strict waste management standards etc
Still waiting for the little frog logo that we can include on our site!
