UTZ CERTIFIED is one of the largest sustainability programs for coffee, cocoa and tea in the world.
Brands that have committed themselves to the sourcing of (sustainable) UTZ CERTIFIED raw materials are global market leaders like Sara Lee, MARS, IKEA, Nestlé, Friele, Migros, and Albert Heijn.
Farmers are trained in the professionalization of their agricultural practice and operational management with care for people and environment. This improves the quality of their products and allows them to produce higher volumes at lower costs. Moreover, farmers who work with UTZ CERTIFIED in the global marketplace receive a premium for their crop and they don’t have to pay an annual fee for taking part in the program.
The UTZ CERTIFIED tracking system subsequently guarantees that the raw materials have actually been grown and harvested in a responsible manner.
