This is the first episode of a new five-part series on The Daily Coffee Pro by the Map It Forward Podcast, hosted by Lee Safar. Our guest on the podcast this week is Pedro Manga from Caravela Coffee. Pedro is a Sustainability and Impact Advisor and in this series, we'll discuss EUDR from a coffee trader's perspective. In this episode of the series, Lee and Pedro discuss the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).

Pedro sheds light on Caravela’s vertically integrated operations and their focus on transparency and traceability.
