We are excited to introduce a new section to our webpage: “Purchase Planning.” This section can be accessed at cafeimports.com/purchase-planning, or under the “Purchasing Info” menu bar option site-wide.

While there is no real formula for how one company or another should approach purchasing coffee, we hope our Purchase Planning page will be a useful resource for roasters, not only to learn what tools and buying assistance Café Imports provides, but also which of those tools will best serve your company’s needs.

We have split our insight on purchasing green coffee into these three sections: for Small-Scale Roasters (< 20 bags per month), for Medium-Scale Roasters (20–75 bags per month), and for Large-Scale Roasters (> 75 bags per month).

The information in each section is insightful no matter how much coffee you roast, so go ahead and give it a good peruse! We also have a Purchase Planning F.A.Q. section, but if you don’t see what you need, drop us a brain-buster on the F.A.Q. contact form.

Happy Roasting!
