Starbucks has a goal to become resource positive and reduce their carbon, water, and waste footprint by 2030. As part of the coffee sustainability team, Agrawal is leading this effort in the coffee supply chain, focused on reducing the footprint of on-farm activities, improving the environmental ecosystem in farming communities, and piloting digital tools to improve farmer livelihoods.
Before this, she launched digital coffee traceability at Starbucks, using blockchain technology to link the data to share the information from bean to cup, with both customers and farmers. Agrawal has been working in Starbucks’ supply chain since landing an internship as a McDonough student.
