We're doing our best to get our coffee Fair Trade/Organic certified, but the labels seem to be generally unimportant to the customer. If it's a good cafe that serves good coffee, I find the customer generally understands that the green buyer purchases coffee at a fair price and if necessary, we educate the customer on the idea that organic certification (for example) takes several years to get and a lot of money. That being said, most coffees purchased by medium/smaller roasters tend to be fair trade and organic without the actual certificate.
So... no huge demand, though it will attract a customer to one of our coffees over another...
