Sustainability at Wild Bean Cafe

At Wild Bean Cafe, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We're always seeking ways to provide our customers with delicious hot drinks, while also protecting the planet.
 
From the careful selection of our coffee beans to the last sip of your latte, we are committed to minimizing our environmental impact every step of the way.

Sustainable Sourcing

We’re dedicated to offering you the best-tasting coffee while ensuring it's sourced sustainably. That’s why our Wild Bean coffee beans (except decaf) are UTZ certified, part of the Rainforest Alliance. This certification guarantees our beans are grown in a way that's good for both the environment and farmers. So, when you enjoy a coffee at Wild Bean Cafe, you can trust it’s been responsibly farmed and delivered.Learn more at utz.org.
 

Re-usable Coffee Cups

re-usable coffee cup
At Wild Bean Cafe, we sell thousands of cups of coffee a day. But that's a lot of plastic lids, and paper cups, being disposed of each and every day. And while our cups can be recycled, we're trying to reduce our waste, but selling re-usable coffee cups. Our cups are BPA free, microwave safe, dishwasher safe, and are even 100% recyclable. Our coffee cups are available in-store and when you present your re-usable coffee at a Wild Bean Cafe, you'll get 50p off your hot drink. 
 
Don't have a Wild Bean Cafe re-usable cup? Don't worry, bring any re-usable cup into your local Wild Bean Cafe, and we'll give you the 50p discount on your drinks. 

Food Waste

In Wild Bean Cafe, we have a waste recovery process in place whereby we reduce the price of products due to expire on a daily basis to encourage customers to purchase these lines at a discounted price and in turn massively reduces the amount of product going to waste.
 
For any lines that aren’t sold, these are returned to our supply chain where they are recycled (there are of course some products that are excluded from this process such as dairy and raw meat).

General Waste Management

Like any retailer, we constantly receive deliveries into our sites. Our partner, DHL, facilitate our deliveries to over 300 Wild Bean Cafes, and DHL do an amazing job at taking away waste such as cardboard boxes, and recycling these. 
As you can imagine, we are more and more conscious as a big retailer of our effect on the environment and we are constantly looking at ways to reduce waste and become a more sustainable business. Look out for more changes coming soon!
