True North: 13%

Lavazza's True North score reflects its status as a fully foreign-owned and controlled manufacturer. While the brand maintains a dedicated sales and distribution presence in Canada, the capital and strategic control remain concentrated in Italy, and primary material sourcing is dictated by global agricultural necessity.

Green Score: 27/100

This product is a single-ingredient whole food, but its environmental profile is hindered by a 15g multi-material flexible plastic bag that is not widely recyclable. The lack of third-party sustainability certifications further limits its score despite the simple ingredient profile. The high-barrier packaging is necessary for shelf-life but creates a significant end-of-life waste challenge.
