Welcome to the 2nd episode of a five-part series on The Daily Coffee Pro by the Map It Forward Podcast, hosted by Lee Safar.

Our guest on the podcast in this series is Angel Barrera, the Head of Coffee at Belco.

In 2024, Belco, together with other partners like FAF Coffees in Brazil, started transporting green coffee from origin to its customers via sailboat, challenging the status quo of what the future of logistics and financing in coffee will be like in the future.

In this series, we'll compare and contrast the conventional approach to logistics and financing the transportation of coffee with how it will be done in the future.

The five episodes in this series are:

1. Understanding Coffee Logistics and Financing - https://youtu.be/9GJHnSUqXUk

2. Coffee Logistics Is Changing - https://youtu.be/n85-qKuVKNw

3. Sailboats May Be The Future of Coffee Logistics https://youtu.be/IA8DMEs4IYk

4. Financing Coffee Logistics - https://youtu.be/nO3kn27K4R0

5. Coffee Logistics 10 Years From Now - https://youtu.be/miSOW7mF8nk

In this episode of 'The Daily Coffee Pro' Lee and Angel discuss the complex interplay between logistics and climate change in the coffee industry.

The conversation covers the adverse effects of weather patterns like La Niña on coffee production in Ecuador and Colombia, the role of environmental consciousness in logistics, and how global shifts toward sustainability are shaping the future of the coffee market.

The episode also delves into the idea of 'global quality' in coffee, which encompasses not only the cup quality but also the economic and environmental impacts.

Tune in to learn about the challenges and innovative solutions such as using sailboats for coffee transport, and the evolving consumer perceptions about coffee sustainability.
