High-quality coffee is a representation of the hard work and dedication of the growers, farmers, pickers, millers, exporters, and importers involved, as well as the people who support and sound those various contributors and their contributions.<\/p>\n<p>We believe there is a synergistic relationship between coffee, community, and progress: It can take an entire community to progress in producing coffee, and coffee can create progress for a community. While we believe this philosophy to be true with most coffee grown worldwide, Cafe Imports has developed and continues to seek community-driven programs on which we can collaborate with our producing partners, designed to support and contribute local initiatives within\u00a0a myriad of coffee-growing communities.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; specialty=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; max_width_tablet=&#8221;85%&#8221; max_width_phone=&#8221;&#8221; max_width_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;3_4&#8243; specialty_columns=&#8221;3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_row_inner column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;3_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;\/\/cdn.cafeimports.com\/images\/Cafe_Imports_Progress_Report_Community_2017_.png&#8221; url=&#8221;\/\/cdn.cafeimports.com\/images\/Cafe_Imports_Progress_Report_Community_2017.pdf&#8221; show_bottom_space=&#8221;off&#8221; align_tablet=&#8221;center&#8221; align_phone=&#8221;center&#8221; align_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|&#8221; always_center_on_mobile=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;0px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Click to read our 2017 Community Report<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column_inner][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;3_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_divider show_divider=&#8221;off&#8221; disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; height=&#8221;5px&#8221; hide_on_mobile=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Raleway||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16&#8243; header_font=&#8221;Raleway||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;33px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><b class=\"\">At the end of each year, we take a collective breath and look back over how well we have lived up to our mission, stayed true to our values, and kept up focus on the guiding\u00a0principles that inspire and motivate us here at Cafe Imports: Quality, Service, Education, and Progress.<\/b>\u00a0<em>Progress\u00a0<\/em>is a key word, as it implies not simply sustaining, but moving forward,\u00a0pushing the limits of quality and performance and making sure that we are never content to rest at \u201cgood enough.\u201d<br class=\"\" \/><br class=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"\">\n<p><span class=\"\">We aim for constant progress with regards to community, development, and environment.
