Just Us!
Just Us! is a cooperative coffee roaster based in Nova Scotia, Canada. Founded in 1995, it is recognized as Canada's first fair trade coffee roaster. Just Us! focuses on providing high-quality, fair trade certified coffee, tea, and chocolate products. The cooperative's mission is to promote fair trade practices and sustainable farming by ensuring that producers in developing countries receive a fair price for their products.
History[edit | edit source]
Just Us! was established by a small group of people who were motivated by the principles of social justice and environmental sustainability. They aimed to create a business model that would support equitable trade relationships with coffee farmers, ensuring that they are paid fair wages for their labor and products. Over the years, Just Us! has expanded its product line to include not only coffee but also tea and chocolate, adhering to the same fair trade principles.
Fair Trade Commitment[edit | edit source]
The core of Just Us!'s mission is its commitment to fair trade. This means that the cooperative works directly with farmers and producers in developing countries, paying them a fair price for their goods. This approach helps to improve the living and working conditions of farmers and their communities. Just Us! is certified by Fairtrade Canada, ensuring that their products meet international fair trade standards.
Products[edit | edit source]
Just Us! offers a variety of products, including:
- Coffee: A selection of whole bean and ground coffee from different regions around the world.
- Tea: A range of black, green, and herbal teas.
- Chocolate: Fair trade certified chocolate bars and cocoa products.
Sustainability[edit | edit source]
Sustainability is a key focus for Just Us!. The cooperative employs environmentally friendly practices in its operations, including using biodegradable packaging and reducing energy consumption. Just Us! also supports organic farming methods, which helps to promote biodiversity and reduce the use of harmful pesticides and fertilizers.
Community Involvement[edit | edit source]
Just Us! is actively involved in community initiatives, both locally in Nova Scotia and in the countries where their products are sourced. The cooperative supports various social and environmental projects, aiming to make a positive impact beyond just fair trade.
Locations[edit | edit source]
Just Us! operates several coffeehouses and retail outlets in Nova Scotia, where customers can enjoy their coffee, tea, and chocolate products. These locations also serve as community spaces, hosting events and workshops that align with the cooperative's mission.
