Saxon Wright
Saxon has roots in the coffee industry going back 20 years. He has pioneered many businesses including coffee education, coffee farming and processing, cafés and roasting. He is the founder and owner of Pablo & Rusty’s Coffee Roasters, a B Corp certified roasting company based in Sydney, Australia. He spent 10 years as Head Judge for the Australian Barista Championships and five years as a Sensory Judge at the World Barista Championships.
He is currently the Co-founder and CEO of Huskee, a company focused on eliminating single use products from the coffee and broader hospitality industries. Huskee developed a reusable cup that utilises waste from the farming of coffee, as well as new recycled steel mugs and a new Borrow program that will help phase out single-use at scale. Huskee aims for 90 per cent of all products it produces to be recycled and made into more products, becoming a closed-loop business.
