People in Coffee

At Starbucks, we call it the bean-to-cup journey – the incredible, global coffee production story that starts on a farm and ends in your hand. We’d like you to meet the people who touch Starbucks coffee along the way – farmers, agronomists, roasters, buyers, engineers, coffee masters, retail partners and more - who exemplify what we stand for. Meet the people behind your cup.
