Happy International Coffee Day! Just in case you needed an excuse to brew yourself another cup of your favourite FiXX.
In 2014, members of the International Coffee Organisation agreed to observe a common International Coffee Day every October 1st. In 2026, the United Nations General Assembly designated the same date in Resolution 80/248. The decision recognises coffee not only as a beverage, but also as part of a global value chain that connects farmers, cooperatives, researchers, traders, roasters, baristas, businesses and consumers.
The observance aims to raise awareness of coffee's economic, social, cultural, and environmental importance and encourage collective action toward a fairer, more resilient, and sustainable coffee sector. Whether you grow it, brew it, serve it or simply love it — let's celebrate coffee and raise our cups to the millions of people whose livelihoods depend on it.
