What Clients Are Saying
“We were drawn to Margo because of her integrity and brutal honesty - no one better to put in charge of investigating the actual impact we make in our value chains - economically, socially and ecologically. Also, she challenged us to communicate this impact in a way that is thorough yet palpable for all audiences.”
— Lennart Clerkx |
This Side Up Coffees
“Samen bouwen we aan dienstverlening die natuurbeheer slimmer en toekomstbestendiger maakt. Margo mixt Friese nuchterheid met Amsterdamse flair. Beide zijn onmisbaar in de soms wat conservatieve wereld van de ecologie. Verbinding maken en toch vooruitgang boeken is hetgeen Margo brengt.”
— Jeroen van Zwieten | Sobolt
“I met Margo Potma upon her arrival in the Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica in 2016; a young student eager to know the reality in the field to apply her academic training in terms of production and conservation. Now, we see Margo reflecting on the work of farmers and intensely seeking to break with the long existing marketing chains in traditional markets. Thereby, proposing new methodologies for commercial traceability using new technologies, which could shorten the chains and get closer to the producers. From the Osa Peninsula we are very happy to be able to work with Margo Potma and we congratulate her on her work and urge her to continue.”
— Alexander Solorzáno | OSACOOP R.L.
“With her knowledge of coffee, cocoa and other agricultural value chains Margo has been proofreading for CBI to great satisfaction. She is a very nice person and easy to work with. Absolutely recommended.”
Laten we ons niet uit het veld laten slaan door lage marktprijzen en grote multinationals die alle winst opstrijken. Er zijn volop mogelijkheden om de huidige handelsketens radicaal om te gooien.
