The Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) has announced details about the second Coffee Retail Summit (retail.sca.coffee).

Following the success of the first Coffee Retail Summit, the SCA will hold the virtual event, continuing a line of retailer-focused programming designed to build on the pre-existing content platform. The summit, which is free to attend, has been made possible thanks to the support of the SCA’s key partners and will take place on June 22-23, 2021, in the Central European Summer Time (CEST) time zone.

The SCA will host a number of live lectures and discussions that focus on mitigating the effects of the pandemic-induced retail landscape and overcoming existing challenges faced by coffee retail businesses. Talks and discussions will draw on community feedback to cover both commercial insights and the latest market research, aiming to deliver up-to-date information for coffee retailers.

In parallel to the two-day event, the Coffee Retail Summit resource library has been updated with the most recent presentations, as well as recently released content across lectures, podcasts and longform writing centered on the issues and challenges being met by coffee retail business and the wider specialty coffee community.
