The Bettr Group
What began in 2011 as Bettr Barista - a provider of specialty coffee education with a social mission at its core, has grown and developed over the years into The Bettr Group. Having expanded from a home-grown specialty coffee company based in Singapore, The Bettr Group encompasses a training academy, retail products, events services, and social impact programmes.

The Bettr Group currently comprises:

Bettr Barista - a regionally-recognised Academy providing professional specialty coffee education.

empower vulnerable groups via a proprietary Bettr Holistic Training Programme developed around coffee. This 4-month vocational programme focuses on marginalised women and youth-at-risk, arming them with professional expertise and life management skills that help pave the way for long-term careers in the specialty coffee industry.

With every Bettr cup of coffee, you’re helping to change lives by supporting our social initiatives, including:

-Nurturing direct trading relationships with our partner farms to optimise the commercial benefit to these farmers and their extended communities
-Running vocational programmes and micro-enterprise opportunities for marginalised groups in Singapore
-Reducing our carbon footprint by repurposing and recycling materials that go into our coffee operations, and using compostable/biodegradable/recyclable serveware

We also won the 2017 President’s Challenge Social Enterprise Of The Year award, having bagged the Social Enterprise Start-Up Of The Year award in 2013.
