Targets & Progress Projects

Create a Roastery that Uses Coffee as a Catalyst for Change.

Progress: xxx

Create a roastery that uses coffee as a catalyst to support positive change.

UPDATE: Breyting Community Roaster (Breyting Coffee™) became a reality in 2019. The company reimagined and renovated 126 W. Ohio Ave. in DeLand, FL, to include a design studio, Airbnb suite, tasting bar, Zen Garden, and a roastery. The new facility represents a 1.4 million dollar investment. In addition, it can produce 360 fundraising coffee boxes (2.5 pounds per box) per day, enough to fulfill our coffee orders and fuel progress for our non-profit partners.

In 2022, we began the process of establishing Breyting Coffee as a non-profit foundation that sustainably supports the roastery’s primary mission: to use coffee as a catalyst to support positive change.

Add more products.

Progress: xx

Add more products emphasizing craft-made, sustainability, and ethics to our website. These products will include handmade mugs, organic apparel, coffee preparing merchandise such as pour overs and reusable k-cup adapters, holiday gift sets, and specialty coffees and teas.

Create Holistic Business Contracts.

Progress: xx

We engage with holistic attorneys (peacemakers) to create conscious contracts for our operating agreement. (Our operating agreement ensures that our philosophy and ethics supersede profit-making activities). In addition, our general operating agreements, licensing, vendor contracts, and other agreements that foster fair and ethical business dealings contain a conflict resolution process that promotes healing and creates a path for our partnerships to get back into alignment and win-win harmony, even if that outcome is parting ways.

Decrease Our Environmental Footprint with Our Coffee Packaging.

Progress:

#1 xxx

#2 xx

1) Collaborate with our box vendors and freight companies to determine the most efficient box size and sustainable packaging options.

UPDATE: The current bags and boxes we use today significantly reduce freight costs and reduce paper waste by more than 30 percent and optimize shelf space for storage.

2) IN PROGRESS: We are purchasing compostable and biodegradable bags and working with our flexible packaging and corrugated box partners to use even safer inks.

Shop-n-Shop Program.

Progress: xx

Work with schools and designers to create a freestanding shop-n-shop display for our fundraising campaigns.

Create an Edible Teaching Garden at the Roastery.

Progress: xx

Create a garden dedicated to teaching the benefits of tea, coffee, and indigenous Florida edible plants. This garden will work in conjunction with schools and organizations to promote healthy living. The garden will feature vertical stacked hydroponics, specialized grow trellises, and conventional growing. There’s an additional emphasis on water conservation and increasing yields while embracing traditional farming practices that deny the use of pesticides.

Install Solar Power

Progress: x

Research, design, and implement a plan to power the roastery and grounds using only solar energy.

Purchase an Afterburner

Progress: x

Invest in an afterburner for our roaster to release an exhaust stream that is even cleaner and virtually free of smoke and odor.

Onsite Composting and Recycling Program.

Progress: x

Create a self-imposed recycling program that includes an on-site, multi-bin compost structure for all of our coffee production wastes.

Institute a Company-Wide Profit-Sharing Program.

Progress: x

Structure and implement a profit-sharing program for full-time and part-time company staff.

Create a Coffee Importing Company with a Transparency System.

Progress: x

One lesson we learned from importing coffee?

It should be treated as a separate business and be set up as an independently run company that works in tandem with our roastery. We plan to establish a coffee and tea import company built on cooperative principles for the purpose of importing specialty coffees and teas, not only for Breyting Coffee™ but other like-minded coffee companies.

A founding principle of Breyting is “Don’t let people, markets, or organizations control your destiny.” For this reason, this new company will be vertically integrated, from the farmers to the consumers. A key component to this new company is developing a simple web-based, transparent certification system. That will allow our customers to trace their coffee to the farmers who grew it by viewing third-party soil reports, view video of the farms, and see the documents that provide proof of fair and equal compensation to farmers (including the women farmers who comprise 70 percent of the labor force). This new venture will also seek to increase our intake of organic coffees.
