If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies. Declined by Anuwrites 28 days ago. | ![]() |
Comment: Please note that a subject needs to meet the WP:GNG or WP:NCORP to warrant a page in Wikipedia mainspace. The subject needs to have significant coverage by independent, reliable sources (secondary reliable source) whereby the sources talk about the subject in length and in depth and not only passing mentioned for verification. Subject home page, social media, edu, gov, org, institution, foundations, private companies, blog, etc., are considered unreliable and/or not independent. If a source is reliable but info is derived from the subject/CEO, that means the source is not independent, and it also can not be used to meet GNG or NCORP requirements.Sources below can not used to meet GNG or NCORP requirements:(1) Essential coffee - is a primary source(2) Ivey Publishing - is not a reliable source (info from the subject) as it just states the "potential acquisition" PDF format.(3) Course Sidekick - is not a reliable source (private company)(4) Gold Coast Bulletin is not a reliable source (5) Daily Telegraphy (content indicates - the US doolar weakness and a delayed coffee harvest in Vietname) has nothing to do with the subject, so the source can not be use, and Daily Telegraph (sydney ) is considered not a reliable source(6) 9 News Perth - The source did not indicates the CEO and even it does, it can not be used as it is not independent as the info is from the source.In conclusion, not a source can be used to pass GNG or NCORP.(6) Cassiopeia talk 04:03, 24 January 2025 (UTC)

Recent History
[edit]Amid the challenges faced by the café market in late 2024 and the rising associated costs, Essential Coffee's CEO, Todd Hiscock[3], has shared their struggles with the Coronavirus pandemic, but it has been reported that despite challenges with the Coronavirus pandemic, achieved and maintained a stable gross margin nearing 60%[4].
Courier Mail and Gold Coast Bulletin also featured statements from Hiscock, sharing that the company believes the coffee price increases can be attributed to droughts and then heavy rains in the leading coffee supplying areas in the world, leading to reduced supply and hence, price increases[5]. He later shared with The Daily Telegraph that the US dollar weakness and a delayed coffee harvest in Vietnam is also attributed to the increased challenges [6].
The CEO later shared that their costs for Arabica beans recently topped $3.44 USD ($5.55 AUD) a pound (0.45kg)[7]. He was also featured on The Today Show discussing these matters [8]
