We believe that small is beautiful. By working collectively as a network of small micro-roasters, we achieve economies-of-scale without compromising the spirit of fair-trade.
We believe in thinking globally but acting locally. The T.A.N. network empowers each café owner to have direct contact with their local consumers and coffee producers.
We believe in community building and capacity building. T.A.N. assists others start their own micro roaster cafés through financing and business planning. Through specialized training, our café operators become expert baristas and coffee roasters, and the business can then stay local to serve the community.
We believe in consumer education. We are committed to provide our customers with ethically sourced and superior -grade fair trade products. Our intention is to expand the fair trade market by working together with like-minded individuals and providing education on fair trade.
