Welcome to Palio Coffee Brand
hand roasted gourmet coffee
Our name is derived from "the Palio", a centuries-old horse race run through the streets of Siena, Italy. Remarkably, today it is still raced by jockeys riding horses bareback in colorful medieval attire. The enduring ability of the citizens of Siena to maintain these historical traditions inspired us to name our company after their great old race.
What is Our Mission?
this is our passion
At Palio, we have committed a major portion of our business to the raising of money to support charities we have championed for years. Now we are creating opportunities for other organizations (large and small) as well as businesses to generate money to support charities they are trying to help. We firmly believe that we can effect positive social change in the lives of those most needing help.
Social Entrepreneurship
let us help you promote your mission
Social enterprises are mission driven organizations which apply market-based strategies to achieve a public good. Every aspect of the Palio coffee, from supporting small farmers committed to shade grown methods of growing sustainable coffee, to using its purchasing power, is utilized as a lever for social impact.
