What's On

Enjoy an in-depth roastery tour with Lucy, our Head of Sourcing. We'll deep dive into the world of coffee and how it goes from bean to cup, finishing with a cup of coffee.

In Collaboration With:

  • Lucy Ward (Head of Sourcing)

    Lucy has been working in the coffee industry for over eighteen years, beginning as a barista and working her way through the ranks. She joined ST. ALi ten years ago to lead the green buying and quality assurance programs and has since morphed her role into also incorporating factory operations. 

    Having traveled to a wide range of producing countries over the years, she has been lucky enough to work side by side with many coffee producers and gain an understanding of the challenges that they face in today's volatile market. This understanding forms the core of her work towards creating holistic relationships and driving impactful changes in producing countries.
