• What has La Colombe done to help with environmental sustainability?

Here are some quick facts that show what we have done to be more sustainable and eco-friendly:

• 1 MILLION LBS of spent concentrate coffee grounds each year are sent from our Philadelphia facilities to a local composter, thus diverting additional waste from landfills.
• 2.5 MILLON LESS STRAWS per year; saved from ending up in landfills and oceans. We discontinued plastic straws and introduced a strawless, sip-through lid for our to-go cold drinks.
• 2,000 REUSABLE CUPS purchased since introducing reusable cups in all cafes less than a year ago. Customers have begun opting to support our commitment to lessening waste by purchasing and using these cups in their everyday lives.
• Through the City of Philadelphia’s tree tender program, we planted three trees outside our Tioga Street production facility.
• Replaced all fluorescent bulbs with LED lighting in our Philadelphia warehouses and our Michigan facility.
