" "Being supported by such an important organization as Fairtrade Italia has once again confirmed that what I have created, the ECOFFEE service platform, is a requirement for a better future," says Norman Cescut "This gives me the strength to keep on working in what is still an immature industry, that of sustainability in the Italian Retail and Horeca panorama.
