“…The context for this research examines Philippine coffee and its AFVC. Batangas and its neighbouring areas are uplands in the Southern part of Luzon and thrive in terms of coffee production due to its cool and mild climate and fertile soil, obtained from the lava of the restive Taal Volcano (Cruz et al ., 2003). The country's geographical terrain and tropical climate has given the Philippines a distinction of being one of the few countries that produces all four commercially viable coffee varieties: Arabica, Liberica, Excelsa and Robusta, with Robusta the dominant bean in terms of 90% the country's coffee output.…”

PurposeThis paper aims to reconceptualise entrenched supply chains associated with coffee production and consumption to digital supply chains for sustainable development.Design/methodology/approachA case study of seven small businesses involved with Philippine coffee is employed to examine how coffee value chains should be envisioned following COVID-19.FindingsThe COVID-19 pandemic reveals truncated barriers concerned with the lack of infrastructure, poverty cycles, sporadic workforce development policies and financial pressures that need to be redefined for coffee production and consumption to be more sustainable in the future.Research limitations/implicationsThe study is restricted to a single country and a small pool of respondents that may not reflect similar practices in other regions or contexts.Originality/valueThis paper illuminates the plight of coffee farmers in an emerging production landscape of the Philippines, and develops new propositions to envision a digital value chain post-COVID-19.
