Caffe Inc is a sustainable biotech company founded in 2021 by Evaluna Márquez Salazar with a mission to create a world without coffee waste.

Operating a production plant in Amsterdam, Caffe Inc processes approximately 100 tons of coffee waste annually from hospitals, offices, and institutions across the Netherlands. The company employs green chemistry and solvent-free extraction technologies to maximize resource efficiency. Every ton of coffee waste processed saves over 400 kg of CO2.
