Packaging EPR laws are now in effect in several states, and coffee companies are being asked to report the packaging they sell and plan for the fees tied to it. For many, the next report will draw on 2026 data, and that year ends December 31.

In this 30-minute session, including live Q&A, the National Coffee Association (NCA) and rePurpose Global skip the policy deep dive and answer one question: what does your company need in place before its next reporting cycle? We’ll walk through five readiness checks you can score yourself on as we go.

    Attendees will learn:
  • Why EPR planning matters now, and who in a coffee business should be paying attention.
  • How to assess whether, and where, your company is likely to be an obligated producer.
  • What packaging and sales data reporting requires, and how to tell whether yours is ready.
  • Which teams need to own EPR and why finance should be involved early.
  • Where readiness most often breaks down, and three steps to take in the next 30 days

No prior EPR knowledge required. Stay for live Q&A, and leave with a clear picture of where your company stands and what to tackle next.
