The coronavirus is affecting both us and others at the moment. The immediate future will be challenging but our focus is on minimizing the risks for co-workers, our operation, customers and the wider community. We are strictly following guidelines and advice provided by national authorities - and additional measures:
The CEO of Löfbergs, Lars Appelqvist, has been appointed to the board of directors of the European interbranch organisation FoodDrinkEurope. Lars was nominated by the national interbranch organisations in Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Estonia.

While worldwide coffee consumption is growing, the inequalities in the supply chain are becoming even more significant. Smallholder farmers, who do most of the work, earn the least money, while large companies capture most the profit.

There are many reasons why sustainability work is high on the agenda at Löfbergs Coffee Group. That it permeates everything we do and our entire value chain – from bean to cup. The past year was no exception.

What will the world look like in 2030, and how will new impetus and trends affect the companies’ role in society?

In the podcast “The Future Starts Here", the company’s CEO Lars Appelqvist shares the results.
The goal was to cut the company’s emissions of greenhouse gases with 40 per cent by 2020. Löfbergs has now reached that goal. Less travelling by air and an increase of the share of Bio LPG are two of the adopted measures that have been contributory factors for Löfbergs’s decrease of its emissions with 50 per cent per produced ton of coffee compared to the base year of 2005.
