Case Study: Hej Coffee improves Scope 3 reporting and carbon data with Foodsteps

Hej Coffee verifies 0.78 kg CO₂e/kg coffee footprint with Foodsteps

Hej Coffee, a small coffee company committed to sustainability, faced the challenge of lacking in-house expertise to credibly measure and communicate its environmental impact. This gap was hindering its ability to meet rising client demands for accurate carbon data. To address this, Hej Coffee partnered with Foodsteps to utilize its life cycle assessment service.

Foodsteps conducted a GHG Protocol-aligned life cycle assessment for Hej Coffee’s products. The results verified the carbon footprint of their roasted coffee beans at 0.78 kg CO₂e/kg, significantly lower than the UK average, enabling Hej to provide clients with verified data for more accurate Scope 3 reporting. For Hej Coffee, this solution provided credible impact reporting without adding internal overhead, allowing them to operate with the capabilities of a much larger business.
