The Addington Coffee Co-op is a business with a belief that profit should be equally shared among those who have earned and deserve it. Not only do they serve excellent and aromatic coffee that is ethically produced and sourced, but over 70 percent of their profits are redistributed back into the local community. These profits also go back to the overseas communities that produce the coffee. To enjoy coffee here is to know that you can contribute to the promise of correcting injustice, poverty and exploitation. We hope that in the future, many other businesses adopt this ideology.
