The company is committed to using the finest coffee beans, sourced from top suppliers worldwide, and roasted with precision in collaboration with a specialized roastery in West Zealand. Blind Coffee proves that quality and social good can go hand in hand, offering customers an opportunity to enjoy great coffee while contributing to a more inclusive society.
REWORK
REWORK is a registred social enterprise, that combines good craftsmanship and responsibility by offering repair and alteration of clothes and producing clothes from recycled materials. The company is owned by Fleur Pearson, who has many years of experience as a tailor in the fashion industry, and for 28 years she has run Outdoor Service, a sewing and repair business specializing in outdoor clothing. REWORK employs refugees and vulnerable citizens.
REWORK wants to change the clothing industry by producing sustainably from residual materials and upcycling discarded products and materials.
