Svetol™ Responsible Sourcing

Contributing to healthier, happier lives with love for nature

Powered by our company purpose, our natural ingredients help create food experiences that do good and feel good for body, mind and planet. Together with our green coffee suppliers, we provide high quality products, while helping to drive sustainable practices across the value chain.

“We have built over the years a great network of suppliers who enable us to select the best green coffee beans, sourced responsibly and with the highest content in chlorogenic acids.”

Our Commitment

Carefully sourced from expert producers

Our green coffee beans are cultivated in Uganda, Tanzania, the Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Madagascar and Vietnam, and harvested between October and February. The green beans are not roasted before the extraction process, as roasting sharply reduces the chlorogenic acids content .¹⁷

Traceability across production stages

In collaboration with our growers, we provide full traceability at every stage of our green coffee bean production, with screening to validate the species both in the field and in the finished product. All our growers work to the highest possible standards. These are verified by on-site GACP (Good Agricultural and Collecting Practice) audits, which ensure premium quality, consistent coffee beans and guarantee that our suppliers follow our Sourcing4Good guidelines for responsible sourcing.
