Starbucks LEED-Certified Factory Tour

November 4th, Net Impact and the Operations Club had the pleasure of touring the LEED-certified Starbucks Roasting Plant in Gaston, SC. The tour was amazing, informative, and impressive. A special thanks to our engineer guides who took us through the plant, of which they knew every inch. Even more impressive they knew how to make every drink Starbucks offers! We were all very grateful for the samples, and beard nets.

In the tasting room. Yep, there is a spitoon!

Thanks again to everyone who participated, and especially Theresa Olson at Starbucks for coordinating with us!
