Access large-volume lots direct from producing farms, cooperatives and washing stations. Minimum order quantities start at full jute bag lots, scaling to FCL and multi-container shipments.
All supply is accompanied by grading documentation conforming to SCA, ICO or country-of-origin standards. Cupping scores and sensory data are available on request for specialty-grade lots, subject to availability.
We coordinate full container load (FCL) shipments in standard export packaging — 60kg GrainPro bags in 20'GP containers. All export documentation including phytosanitary, ICO certificates and bill of lading arranged.
Volume buyers receive regular market updates on crop availability, harvest outlooks, and ICE futures benchmarks to support procurement decisions throughout the season.
A standard 20-foot general purpose (20'GP) container holds approximately 280–320 × 60kg jute/GrainPro bags, yielding a total net cargo weight of roughly 17,000–19,000 kg of green coffee. Weight varies by bean density, moisture content and packing configuration.
Each commercial shipment is supported by: Phytosanitary Certificate, ICO Certificate of Origin, Packing List, Commercial Invoice, Bill of Lading, and Moisture/Defect Analysis Report. Organic, Fairtrade and Rainforest Alliance certifications available for select origins.
We facilitate trade under standard international terms including Letter of Credit (LC), Documents Against Payment (DAP), and CAD arrangements. Terms are negotiated on a per-order basis based on buyer profile and volume.

Green coffee grading evaluates raw beans against objective criteria to establish quality tier and commercial value. The main internationally recognised systems are the SCA (Specialty Coffee Association) protocol and country-specific systems administered by national coffee boards.
SCA Grading: The SCA cupping protocol scores roasted coffee on a 100-point scale. Coffees scoring 80+ are classified specialty grade. Green bean physical analysis evaluates defect counts per 350g sample.
Country Systems:
| Grade/Standard | Origin | Key Criteria | Commercial Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| SCA Specialty (80+) | Global | Cupping score, ≤5 full defects | Specialty roasters |
| SCA Premium (75–79) | Global | Cupping score, defect analysis | Premium commercial |
| NY 2 / Fine Cup | Brazil | 4 defects / 300g, clean cup | Blends, espresso |
| Supremo | Colombia | Screen 17/18, washed | Filter, specialty |
| Excelso | Colombia | Screen 14–16, washed | Commercial blends |
| Kenya AA | Kenya | Screen 18+, density graded | Specialty, premium |
| Kenya AB | Kenya | Screen 15/16 | Specialty, blending |
| Ethiopia Grade 1 | Ethiopia | 0–3 primary defects | Specialty, direct trade |
| Robusta Grade 1 | Vietnam | ≤2.5% defects, ≤12.5% moisture | Espresso, instant |
Cupping is the standardised sensory evaluation method used throughout the global coffee trade to assess quality, consistency and flavour characteristics of green and roasted coffee samples. It is the international language of coffee quality.
Purpose for Volume Buyers: Cupping allows buyers to verify that a green bean lot meets stated quality parameters before committing to purchase. It is essential for building consistent roasting profiles and validating supplier claims.
The SCA Cupping Protocol:
Buyers are encouraged to request cupping reports and green bean samples for evaluation prior to placing volume orders.
| Cupping Attribute | What It Measures |
|---|---|
| Fragrance / Aroma | Dry grounds and wet crust scent intensity and quality |
| Flavour | Primary taste impression after slurping |
| Aftertaste | Lingering impression after swallowing |
| Acidity | Perceived brightness or tartness; quality and intensity |
| Body | Tactile weight and texture of the liquid on the palate |
| Balance | How well all attributes complement each other |
| Uniformity | Consistency across five cups from the same sample |
| Clean Cup | Absence of negative taints or defect flavours |
| Sweetness | Presence of pleasant sweetness (sucrose-related) |
| Overall | Holistic impression — cupper's final assessment |
Green coffee is traded and exported in standardised packaging that protects bean integrity during transit. Understanding packing configurations is essential for calculating import quantities, freight costs and customs entries.
