Below is a snippet from the recent press release.

Little Rock, AR, October 18, 2015– Founder and CEO of Steamin’ Joe’s, Joe Smith, makes a statement that puts to rest all of the rumors that Steamin’ Joe’s coffee beans are being purchased from other big coffee suppliers instead of coffee bean farmers through fair trade.

“Steamin’ Joe’s advertises its ethicality and honesty. We stand by what we advertise when we say that we only purchase coffee beans from the coffee bean farmers through the fair trade act.  We do not believe in making the rich man richer and the poor man poorer.  We wish to support the common farmer not the big corporate companies who only wish to stuff their pockets with more cash.”

Joe Smith, himself, grew up on his father’s dairy farm and knows the struggle of living hand to mouth on the income of a farmer.  This is why he is so adamant about standing by the fair trade act when he purchases the coffee beans for his company.

Steamin’ Joe’s is a coffee chain based right here in Little Rock, AR. Founded in 2000, Joe Smith, founder and CEO, created Steamin’ Joe’s to give a good hot cup of joe to the working man every morning.
