We are collaborating with Franchisees, suppliers and producers to catalyze change and help create a brighter, better world for the future.
Power of the Bean
Serving the best coffee means ensuring that our ways of farming are environmentally friendly.
Our coffee beans are responsibly sourced through a proud partnership with the Rainforest Alliance – an NGO that helps train farmers about the importance of growing coffee beans in a more sustainable way to preserve the land for generations to come.
This puts us on course to reach our goal of sourcing 100% more sustainable coffee.
In addition to sustainable sourcing, we also help to sustain the environment by re-using our coffee ground waste. We collect all our used ground coffee from McCafé restaurants across the country, which are taken to our recycling partner who begins to process it into seed paper and seed-germination pods. Which our customers can take home to grow their own vegetables to enjoy.
This is our way of helping to preserve the earth and to inspire people to sow the bean for generations to come.
Together Mzansi is about showing people that as South Africans, we may all be different, but we can come together for the things that matter. As the country looks forward to a prosperous year ahead, McDonald’s South Africa brings you Together Mzansi, as a reminder of how unity not only makes us stronger but happier.
