Stop guessing on green coffee pricing.

Weekly pricing, sourcing, and compliance intelligence for independent roasters.

Serving independent roasters worldwide

What you get every week

Three deliverables. One goal: better decisions.

Every Monday

Market & Margin Brief

What moved in arabica, robusta, FX, and freight — and what it means for your buying and pricing decisions this week. Not news. Actions.

Updated weekly

Competitor Price Tracker

Bag prices normalized to price-per-kilo across blends, single origins, and subscriptions. See how your pricing compares before your customers do.

Ongoing

Supply & Compliance Radar

Origin risks, shipment disruptions, and — for EU-facing roasters — an EUDR checklist with deadline tracking so nothing catches you off guard.

Why now

The market is moving. Your margins depend on keeping up.

Price volatility: The ICO composite indicator dropped 9.9% in a single month. Some analysts are discussing moves toward $2.00/lb or lower. Every week you wait to adjust costs you margin.
Supply uncertainty: Output forecasts for 2025/26 range from 6% to 12% above last year — but that spread is a planning headache, not a guarantee.
Compliance pressure: EU deforestation regulation deadlines start December 30, 2026 for most operators. If you sell into the EU, preparation starts now.
Roaster pain is real: The SCA found that roasters rank availability, pricing, costs, and cash flow as their top business problems — and called volatility the biggest threat to stability.

How it works

Free media tells you what happened. We tell you what to do next.

We monitor prices, origins, competitors, freight, and regulation so you don't have to. Every Monday, you get a short briefing with specific actions — not a 40-page report you'll never read.

Founding pilot members also get direct access for quick questions, a monthly strategy call, and a custom competitor tracker built around their market.

About Roaster Margin Desk

We help independent roasters make better buying, pricing, and compliance decisions every week.

This isn't a newsletter. It's an outsourced market desk — built for operators who don't have time to track prices, competitors, and regulations themselves but can't afford to ignore them.
