Organisation: WithOneBean

WithOneBean is a specialty coffee that is ethically, socially and environmentally sourced from a cooperative of subsistence farmers in Timor-Leste.

A key mission is for coffee farmers to benefit – both through increased purchase of their coffee and additional coffee farming training and education. WithOneBean focuses on putting an earned dollar in a person’s pocket, empowering them to make decisions for themselves and not be reliant on charity and aid.

All profits generated by WithOneBean are invested back into subsistence communities in Timor-Leste, helping to end poverty and hunger, replant the forests, and support ongoing learning.

We’ve worked closely with the team from WithOneBean over many years to develop the communications it needs to help sell its products and promote its work. In addition to developing the name and branding, materials delivered to date include websites, digital stories, photography, packaging, and other collateral such as stationery, T-shirts and postcards.

Demand for WithOneBean coffee continues to increase, as the organisation explores new ways to expand its reach. The recently launched website we created, which draws heavily on WithOneBean imagery and includes a simplified shop, was designed with a long-term vision in mind to help the organisation grow its social impact well into the future.
