Girls Who Grind Coffee
Girls Who Grind Coffee is an all-female speciality coffee roastery founded by Casey LaLonde, who is originally from upstate New York and has been based in the UK since 2009. The business was co-founded in 2017 and operates on a single sourcing principle: every coffee in the range comes from a woman producer. That is not a label or a seasonal range, it is the entire buying policy. Casey's background includes time in a cupping lab and roastery and assisting on Q-Grader courses. The motivation for the focus on women producers comes from her Sociology degree and observation that women make up the majority of the coffee industry's workforce but are rarely acknowledged as decision-makers or business owners. GWGC shares producer stories as part of how it sells its coffees. The business sells online with subscriptions available, and supplies wholesale accounts. It also produces a non-alcoholic coffee stout under the Girls Who Grain sub-brand.
