WCR Check-Off Fund Participation

We know that what seems like small change at first really adds up, and we believe that every little bit helps. So do our friends at World Coffee Research, who have established a check-off fund in order to allow roasters of all sizes to contribute to the future of specialty coffee, pocket change at a time. We welcome all of our roaster partners to participate in the World Coffee Research check-off fund, through green-coffee purchases made with Cafe Imports Australia.
The check-off fund is a voluntary program established by WCR in collaboration with participating importing companies: Any interested customer can decide to have one Australian cent ($0.01 AUD) added to the price per kilo of any coffee purchased through Cafe Imports Australia. (Roasters can also choose another amount.) The total contribution per sale is calculated and included as a line item on a roaster’s invoice; the funds are tracked and collected by Cafe Imports Australia and remit directly to WCR on a quarterly basis. Participation is completely optional and as easy as filling the form on the bottom of this page or contacting your sales representative.
World Coffee Research was established in 2012 as a result of the realization by many in the coffee industry that there was a huge need for a global body of research, and that the coffee sector needed to develop strategies to respond to obstacles that are particularly affecting producers worldwide. WCR is a joint effort among researchers, coffee companies, and in many cases national and international institutions, with a mission to discover and disseminate meaningful and practical data about coffee production through intensive and intentional scientific research. WCR has proved itself to be an open and transparent resource for facts and figures, extensive variety classification and study, and a means for producers to access not simply intangible knowledge but also actual plant material and farm solutions that provide practical assistance in the field and in the moment.
