Pergamino is a brand of Colombian coffee that offers beans from a traceable source so that consumers know that they are supporting a brand that uses fair trade and treats workers with respect.
The company is owned by Son Pedro Echavarría, who runs the family business from his farm. In addition to using transparent manufacturing itself, Pergamino works to spread the practice throughout the area by supporting other municipal small businesses and providing them with information so that they can do the same. The Colombian coffee is now available in North America, where consumers can go to the company's website and learn about how each roast gets its distinct notes of flavor.
As consumers have become increasingly aware of the importance of fair trade, Pergamino's Colombian coffee is one option that is working towards improving the quality of life for those involved, making for a purchase consumers can feel good about.
