Rounton Coffee Roasters
Rounton Coffee Roasters are based in North Yorkshire.
Their mission is simple. They aim to source coffees that guarantee a fair cut for everyone at origin, and they make sure that their hard work comes through in the taste of the coffees that they roast.
Their story began 8 years ago in Sumatra, where they met a wonderful group of farmers in a region that they continue to support today.
It was this meeting that brought to their attention the plight of many smallholder farmers around the world. They decided that if they could do something for them, they should, and so on their return to the UK, Rounton Coffee Roasters was born.
Rounton finds themselves today, having formed relationships not just in Sumatra, but all over the world.
They believe that quality and sustainability can (indeed, must), go hand in hand.
