Löfbergs shares its sustainability successes and challenges in its sustainability report. The family-owned coffee roaster is now being awarded the Hallbars Sustainability Report Awards for its latest report. As a national winner, Löfbergs will be representing Sweden in the international final.
Sweden is one of the top coffee consuming countries in the world. But are at the same time throwing away 300 million litres of coffee every year. An unnecessary waste of the earth’s resources. Löfbergs is now presenting an initiative to help people make the most of their coffee. The coffee is not only regarded as an end product, but also as a raw material for new products in a circular economy.
Löfbergs continues to grow in Finland. The Swedish coffee roaster is now taking the next step and establishes a Finnish subsidiary, of which Kent Pettersson will be CEO as from 1 July. Kent is currently working as sales director at Löfbergs, in charge of food retail in Sweden and Finland.
The CEO of Löfbergs, Lars Appelqvist, has been appointed to the board of directors of the European interbranch organisation FoodDrinkEurope. Lars was nominated by the national interbranch organisations in Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Estonia.
A coffee for everyone. With the new Equality Light Roast, Löfbergs takes a stand for the equal value of all people. Löfbergs donates SEK 1 for every sold package to the Rainbow Fund, which works for a world where everyone is treated the same, no matter who you are or who you love.
A year ago, Kathrine Löfberg was appointed chairman of the board of the 110-year-old family company Löfbergs. She is now taking over the chairman's gavel of International Coffee Partners. From the start in 2001,ICP, has worked together with more than 30,000 farmers to make smallholder coffee farming more competitive and to improve livelihoods for coffee farmers all over the world.
Now everyone can enjoy good capsule coffee with a clear conscious. The coffee roaster Löfbergs launches a longed-for environmental innovation: a completely plant-based and compostable capsule that turns to compost after twelve weeks.The capsules fit all Nespresso® machines and come in five different flavours.
The demand for organic products is substantially increasing. That is what Löfbergs focuses on when the coffee roaster is expanding its assortment. In February, Eko Mörkrost (Organic Dark Roast) makes an entrance on the coffee shelves in Swedish grocery stores. Löfbergs is preparing for a record launch due to the great demand for organic products.
Even though Löfbergs increased its production, the company's climate impact decreased. This is partly due to continuous energy efficiencies and more renewable energy. At the same time, the company sold a record amount of coffee from certified farms. This is shown in the coffee group's sustainability report for 2013/2014.
The financial year 2013/2014 involves new records for Löfbergs. The family-owned coffee group increased its production to closer to 29,000 metric tons, which correspond to 10.5 million cups of coffee - per day. The company now invests SEK 100 million in a new logistics centre that creates space for future expansion.
