Impact of Hermetic Packaging on Coffee Quality

Hermetic packaging is for the specialty market a “must do”. It’s an important element among the supply chain, to ensure the quality of the coffee beans from the farm to the roasters’ door.  We went through this topic with Stéphane Cuchet, the owner of Soluagro, a solution packaging company based in Guatemala, to learn more about the ins and out of the packaging industry for coffee.
