Rainforest Alliance

Our freshly ground coffee doesn't just taste great, it's making a difference as well. Every bean we grind at McCafé® is made using 100% Arabica coffee beans sourced only from Rainforest Alliance Certified™ farms in Brazil, Colombia and Costa Rica that meet the strict environmental and social standards set by the Rainforest Alliance.

The Rainforest Alliance seal guarantees that your coffee was grown on a farm where the environment is protected and workers are given access to better pay, education and medical care. It also means your McCafé® coffee is delivered with the same quality and flavour that you love.

helping farmers and the environment


McCafé is proud to be in partnership with the Rainforest Alliance as only farms that meet specific and holistic standards balancing all aspects of production – including protecting the environment, the rights and welfare of workers and the interests of coffee growing communities – are awarded the Rainforest Alliance Certified™ seal.

The decision taken by McDonald's Australia to source 100% of coffee beans for McCafé® from Rainforest Alliance will ensure thousands of farmers, farm workers and their families in Brazil, Costa Rica and Colombia benefit. On Rainforest Alliance Certified™ farms, farm workers are treated with respect and have access to clean water, medical care and education for themselves and their families.
