🫘 It was great to meet so many coffee manufacturers from across the UK with the @BritCoffAssoc. ☕️ We drink 98 million cups of coffee every day, and the industry brings huge benefits in terms of jobs, our economy and trade around the world. ✅ We have so many brilliant coffee shops in the Borders, and it was great to hear more about the work being done to make coffee production more sustainable, as well as how the industry operates.
