Coffee Bloom
Beginning in 2022, Coffee Bloom is a newly established project at Enactus UvA. Currently in the developing phase, Coffee Bloom aims to find a sustainable approach to recycling used coffee grounds, with the purpose of creating more sustainable fertilizer in the Netherlands
Business Idea
CoffeeBloom is a sustainable business idea that leverages the by-products of coffee brewing to create organic fertilizers. By utilizing the discarded coffee grounds, Coffee Bloom helps reduce waste and provides a natural, eco-friendly alternative to traditional chemical fertilizers. By promoting the use of organic fertilizers, Coffee Bloom is contributing to a greener, healthier environment and is promoting sustainable agriculture practices. This innovative solution offers a win-win for coffee drinkers and farmers alike, as it helps reduce waste and improves soil quality.
