The sustainability of the coffee supply chain is one of the key issues for the development of this category. Climate change coupled with socio-economic challenges in producer countries is generating major changes.

To celebrate Cinco de Mayo, we have pulled together three Mexican food trends that may inspire you! 1. Elote: Mexican street food consisting of charred corn, sprinkled with a hard cheese similar to pecorino and served with paprika and lime. This delicious side is perfect for summer BBQs or Taco nights. 2. Birria Tacos: Similar to a Canadian "French dip" sandwich, this rich meat taco comes with a side of cooking juice that can be dipped in or drunk. 3. Mexican oregano, distinct from its Mediterranean counterpart, offers a potent herbaceous flavour with hints of liquorice and lemon, derived from its relation to lemon verbena. Ideal for stews, Mexican beans, or chilli. #cincodemayo #mexicanfoodtrends #food #foodtrends #innovation #foodandbeverage

🌹 Tomorrow is Sant Jordi's day!! 📚 I'm excited to share a book that has been instrumental in both my personal and professional life: "Atomic Habits" by James Clear. Why "Atomic Habits"? This book is more than just a guide; it's a comprehensive exploration into the mechanics of habit formation and the profound impact of small, consistent changes. Here are the three main learnings of the book: -The Power of Marginal Gains: James Clear emphasizes that improving just 1% every day leads to significant growth over time. This concept has reshaped my daily routines by encouraging me to make incremental improvements, rather than seeking overwhelming changes all at once. -Focus on Systems, Not Goals: One of the book's core principles is that lasting success comes from good systems, not just the goals themselves. This shift in perspective has helped me to rethink how I structure my work and personal life for ongoing progress rather than one-time achievements. Identity -Based Habits: Clear argues that true change starts with a shift in identity. By embracing a new aspect of who we are, we can foster habits that resonate deeply with our desired self-image. This insight has been crucial for me to develop habits that align with my professional aspirations and personal values. On Sant Jordi’s Day, a day steeped in the tradition of giving books as a token of respect and love, gifting "Atomic Habits" could be a life-changing gesture. It offers practical strategies and inspiring stories that can help anyone refine their habits to better meet their goals and improve their quality of life. Whether you are a professional striving for excellence, a student aiming to optimize your study habits, or someone just looking to make healthier choices every day, "Atomic Habits" provides the tools and motivation to make a real difference. 📖💡 What book are you thinking of sharing today? Let's exchange ideas and inspirations on this beautiful day dedicated to the joy of reading!
