Taylors of Harrogate is a family-owned coffee and tea business based in Harrogate, UK. Founded in 1886, we pride ourselves on making fantastic tasting products and sourcing our raw materials ethically and responsibly. Through Taylors Sourcing Approach (TSA) we’re committed to putting our values at the heart of how we buy our tea and coffee, building long-term relationships with suppliers and working together – and with the wider industry – to address deep-rooted challenges such as low wages, working conditions and access to opportunities.

As we have grown as a business and developed our approach to responsible sourcing, we have recognized the challenges and shortcomings that fragmented investments present to the value chain. Seeing the progress that GCP has achieved so far in aligning the industry and promoting collective action has inspired us to join the movement. We have been engaged in Collective Action Initiatives in a number of country platforms, and looking forward to seeing the impact we can have together.
