Löfbergs Lila is already one of the world’s largest importers of ecological and Fairtrade coffee. But that’s not enough for the Swedish coffee company. The target is that all coffee sold by the family-owned business will be certified within five years. That’s one important part when Löfbergs Lila now intensifies its work on sustainability.
Fine-grind coffee is getting more popular all over Sweden according to a poll carried out by Demoskop on behalf of Löfbergs Lila. At the same time, the interest for the origin of the coffee is increasing. Löfbergs Lila bears this in mind when launching the specialty coffee Magia Blanca for the Out of Home market. It is a coffee with rounded body that is Fairtrade certified as well as eco-labelled.

Rosteriet (Swedish for roasting-house). That is the name of Löfbergs Lila's café. No less than five people had sent in the same name suggestion for the new place for experiencing coffee in Karlstad. The name also appealed to the jury.
After more than 100 years, the Löfberg family is opening the doors to its headquarters in Karlstad's inner harbour. It is a longed-for investment that gives visitors both coffee experiences and stories that titillate all senses. The construction of the café starts now and by the end of August, the doors will open up to the public.
