Local and National Coffee Brand Employs 2208 Women

Producing strategic projects within the scope of women's employment Arabica Coffee House, has also taken a special initiative to support people living in rural areas most affected by the climate crisis. As part of the Seeds of 100 Years Project, women in these villages received training in seed ball production and earned income. The seed balls were distributed to designated areas via drones. In this way, a solution is offered to the income inequality of groups directly affected by the climate crisis, while also making a positive contribution to nature.

As part of another project for women; Arabica Coffee House aimed to increase the number of audiences it reached by supporting the film “Escape from the Darkness”, which is inspired by a dramatic and true story that addresses the issue of violence against women, in order to draw attention to the theme of “violence against women”. Arabica Coffee House Founding Partner Elif Ülger Yalçın donated this support to the Mor Çatı Women's Shelter Foundation. The donation aimed to raise awareness against violence against women.

We provided women with 512 hours of pastry training in our food factory, provided them with a professional qualification certificate and offered them job opportunities. Arabica Coffee House has set an example in the sector by increasing the number of female employees to 560, and we have provided employment opportunities to a total of 2208 women to date.
