Marin Green Business Spotlight: Equator Coffees Recertified ☕

We are excited to share that the Equator Coffees roastery in San Rafael has recertified as a Marin Green Business! As a recognized leader in environmental responsibility and values-driven business, their roastery continues to be a valuable business in our sustainability certification program.

As a B-Corp certified business, the team at Equator approaches every aspect of their operations as an opportunity for sustainability. A few notable examples: they invested in energy-efficient Loring Smart Roasters, which reduce natural gas usage by 80% compared to traditional drum roasters, and they recently began printing on their recycled packaging with an innovative algae-based ink that further reduces their emissions. Equator Coffees also partners with other Certified Green businesses and organizations, contributing to a strong local network of values-aligned businesses.

We are grateful to have inspiring businesses in the Marin Green Business Program. This recertification can give you extra confidence in supporting a sustainable company next time you're picking up coffee beans or looking for your caffeine fix!
