THE PLEDGE · REPORT 2025
Transparency Report 2025
Coffee news, our relations, and honest cookies. Curious? Visit our roastery and taste the difference — and read what we bought in 2025, where it came from and what we paid for it. The numbers are the point.
Read the numbersWe are Caffenation:
We are a specialty coffee roaster based in Antwerp. Since 2003 we have been sourcing exceptional coffees, roasting them with care and serving them in our bars. Coffee beans, drip bags, capsules, subscriptions and merch. Coffee that keeps people close — and a set of numbers that keeps us honest.
What is in the report
Every origin
Country, region, farm, variety, process and harvest — for every lot we bought in 2025.
Every price
FOB price, the C-price on the day of purchase and the differential we agreed with the producer.
Every kilo
Volume per lot, what we roasted, what we cupped out and what went to the bars instead of the shop.
The Pledge
We report under the Transparency platform 'The Pledge', so the format is comparable with other roasters.
A detailed look at our numbers
A new year, new crops, new prices. Price increases are never welcome, but they are often inevitable, with annual index rises typically around 2%. However, this year the green coffee market moved far more than that — so we show you exactly which lot moved and by how much, instead of a general note on the shelf.
