True North: 25%

Zavida retains a strong operational footprint in Canada through its roasting and distribution facilities. However, the True North score is impacted by its transition to foreign ownership, which directs profits and strategic control abroad. Because the primary commodity cannot be produced in Canada, inputs provide no domestic retention despite the local transformation process.

Green Score: 0/100

This product utilizes a multi-layer flexible plastic bag weighing approximately 20g, which offers excellent preservation but is difficult to recycle in standard streams. It scores well for sustainability due to its Rainforest Alliance certification and the brand's verified carbon-neutral status. The inclusion of hazelnut and vanilla flavorings increases the ingredient count and prevents a whole-food designation.
