Unblended Coffee / Young Producer Program (YCA)

Unblended Coffee is a green coffee company that strives to create a more exciting and bright future for coffee producers. They work closely with producers and roasters to build meaningful and lasting relationships in the coffee industry. The belief that drives them is that the pursuit of excellence and mastery is the only way forward, and the only way to dignify everyone in this industry.
The Young Producer Program (YCA) is a principal reason that drove us at Tenfold to develop a relationship with Unblended. This program guides producers in the creation of their own coffee project, positioning their brand internationally, and improving the profitability of their operations. The emphasis on building best farming and business practices to increase cup quality and differentiation makes this a wonderful initiative! It invites the next generation of coffee producers to center their focus on the industry which connects us in such meaningful ways.


Relationship

It was happenstance that brought Tenfold and Unblended together. A pop-in from the customer success team at the beginning of 2024 eventually led to what has become an exciting partnership between us. Our values, and vision for the future of the coffee industry are kindred! Having participated in multiple community events with them, it’s obvious to us their commitment is true, and their beliefs steadfast.
