“On behalf of COOCAFE, our ten member co-operatives and our 6,200 coffee producers, we send a special congratulations to Cafédirect’s Chief Executive Anne MacCaig for winning the 2009 Ethical Business of the Year Award.

This prize isn’t just the result of the work and energies of a successful businesswoman, it also recognises the work and dedication of all the people who work at Cafédirect.

Yet this prize is so much more important than this. It isn’t just a prize for a visionary and successful businesswoman and her team, it also demonstrates that the business world can be an ethical one.”
