Equator Coffees

We worked with the talented Stefan Kunz to bring our Anniversary Blend design to life. "This design is a tribute to Equator Coffees' 30-year journey, inspired by their history as a female-founded, B Corp-certified company. The varied lettering styles create an engaging narrative, where each unique element finds meaning and purpose as they come together on the page. It reflects the beauty of diversity in unity—like a neighborhood café, where different people, stories, and perspectives gather to create something truly special." -Stefan Kunz Voiceover by Equator co-founders Brooke McDonnell and Helen Russell.

We are truly honored to be named among #Chowhound’s "15 of the Best Coffee Roasters in America." Read more: https://lnkd.in/gkUU6nhf

Equator Coffees, a company dedicated to using coffee as a force for good, celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. From the very beginning, we believed that coffee could be a powerful tool for positive change, and this belief has shaped everything we do. Over the years, we have had the privilege of building lasting relationships with coffee farmers, businesses, and customers that share our core values of sustainability, quality, inclusivity, and community. These partnerships have allowed us to nurture long-term farming relationships, champion transparency and sustainability, and create inclusive spaces where everyone feels cared for. To our incredible community, we express our deepest gratitude for being a part of this remarkable journey. Equator wouldn’t have achieved its current success without your unwavering support and passion for exceptional coffee. As we celebrate many more years of sharing cups of coffee together, let us raise a toast to the enduring community we’ve built. Cheers to three decades of better coffee!
