City Girl Coffee

Based in Duluth, Minnesota, City Girl Coffee is more than just a cute company with a chic look.  It also brings awareness and equality to women of the coffee industry.  At an event for the International Women’s Coffee Alliance (see conclusion of this post), Founder Alyza Bohbot, whose family began Alakef Coffee Roasters, was inspired to source all of the company’s product from women coffee farmers, and in turn, to work with the IWCA to give back to these women. CGC gives a portion of each sale to organizations that support women farmers and surrounding communities in Brazil, Guatemala, Peru, Sumatra, and Mexico. You can order online, and even get monthly “Sipscriptions.”
