Announcing the Finalists for the 2026 SCA Sustainability Awards
The Specialty Coffee Association is proud to announce the finalists for the 2026 Sustainability Awards, recognizing excellence in sustainability across the industry.
Each year, these awards offe a way to celebrate sustainability leaders in both for-profit and non-profit companies. Finalists all showcase innovation, collaboration, and positive impact across the entire coffee value chain.
The companies, organizations, and projects below have not only dedicated themselves to confronting the enormous challenges facing the specialty coffee industry, but also to collaborating across geographies, cultures, and value chain roles, and to sharing the lessons they have learned for the benefit of the entire coffee sector.
The judging process has two steps, the first of which is now complete: a team of SCA staff have reviewed all submissions that meet the requirements listed, and collaborated to select our finalists. Next, our selected finalists will be reviewed by a panel of judges comprised of previous SCA Sustainability Award Winners.
This year’s winners will be announced on SCA channels in a few weeks, and will be awarded and recognized at World of Coffee San Diego in April.
