Dunkin Donuts has become a global powerhouse, known for their selection of delicious donuts and coffee drinks. While the company has recently expanded their product offering with frozen doughnuts, Dunkin Donuts’ coffee remains a top pick among customers looking for instant energy boost. Many people ask if dunkin Donuts offer organic coffee options; unfortunately no such organic product exists but there are options available to more environmentally conscious consumers.

This chain predominantly uses Fair Trade Certified beans, providing additional income for farmers and their families, and Rainforest Alliance-certified beans – two positive signs for eco-conscious customers. However, organic or shade grown varieties are not used due to significant additional expenses in procuring such varieties at scale.

Decaffeination process should also be carefully considered, with many preferring its flavor; however, decaf does not offer the same buzz of caffeine. One popular method for decaffeinating coffee is Swiss Water Process; known for retaining flavor while being chemical-free and maintaining aroma retention; unfortunately this process is more costly than others such as Methylene Chloride process or Methylene Nitrite process.

Even though the company doesn’t sell organic or shade-grown coffee, they do strive to promote sustainable practices. Their corporate responsibility section features a sustainability pamphlet for franchisees that details ways they can reduce their environmental impact – for instance by recycling paper cups instead of discarding 2.7 million Styrofoam cups each day.

WhiteWave Foods, a producer of plant-based foods and beverages free from artificial growth hormones, is another way for Dunkin Donuts to provide its customers with environmentally-friendly options. Furthermore, Dunkin Donuts brand coffee creamer made with non-dairy ingredients is promoted.
