Social Impact Project for Marketing support for coffee exporter to US Market
How This Works
In the MovingWorlds Institute Global Fellowship, you will learn how to advance your for-good career while getting hands on experience on projects like this one.
Project Description and Impact
We are starting soon with selling roasted coffee to the US market. We have it roasted and packed here in Medellin and flown directly to Miami from where it is distributed by truck all over the US and Canada. We sell through wholesalers in different cities. But we still need to develop the brand and put it in the market. We need to develop a marketing strategy, create a website, online presence and printed promotional materials to be used by the wholesalers.
