The B.C. coffee chain Waves Coffee has been slapped with a nearly $31,000 administrative penalty for a “major” breach of provincial recycling regulations linked to the disposal of “to go option hot cups.”
The penalties from the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change Strategy span March 29 to Nov. 30, 2023, and were handed to the 21-franchise coffee shop for using, selling and distributing paper products without plans to take responsibility for the life cycle of the products.
In her June 19 decision, Environmental Management Act director Stephanie Little found the failures to comply with regulations led to “undermining the basic integrity of the B.C. recycling regulatory regime.”
“It also undermined the ministry’s capacity to protect and conserve the natural environment,” she added.
Recycling plans form the foundation of the recycling regulatory regime and apply to companies that have a gross annual revenue of over $1,000,000 and produce more than one metric tonne of packaging and paper products.
By not having a recycling plan, companies “avoid their obligation" and create "an uneven playing field,” forcing those who are compliant to pay for their waste, according to Little. If a producer of packaging and paper products fails to pay its fees to fund recycling, it results in a “lack of recycling service to some or all B.C. residents.”
“This could negatively impact recycling rates and the waste stream, resulting in environmental impact,” she added.
Waves Coffee was given an opportunity to submit its side of the story in March 2024, and after repeated delays sent data on “to go option hot cups” sold at all of its locations in 2023.
The company was also found to have been aware of its non-compliance since at least 2020 and was warned in March 2023.
Little said she was persuaded that Waves Coffee “failed to take action” and increased the $10,000 base penalty by 25 per cent.
“Waves Coffee has a history of failing to respond to the ministry, refusing to provide information, and generally being non-cooperative,” reads the initial penalty assessment form.
“I find Waves Coffee to have had significant awareness of the requirement to appoint a stewardship agency or get a plan approved, and the control to come into compliance was firmly within their power. They have chosen not to.”
In its submission, owner Kayvan Rahmati said his name has been associated with Waves Coffee since in inception, but that he officially assumed ownership and operational responsibilities of the company on March 6, 2022, after the sudden passing of his father in a car crash.
Rahmati said he had “limited involvement” in the company’s operations before that point.
“I understand the need to take responsibility for the use of my name, but the circumstances surrounding its usage were beyond my control,” he is quoted saying in the decision.
But after reviewing the evidence documented by ministry staff, Little found “no evidence was provided to support this assertion” and that “Kayvan Rahmati has been in contact with the ministry since 2019 regarding this matter.”
Little upped the base penalty another 20 per cent.
The initial penalty assessment made its calculations estimating each location used about 500 disposable cups per day — something the company claimed was a “considerable overestimate.”
Data the company provided to the ministry appeared to show extremely low sales of paper cups at four locations, including one in Port Moody that reported selling 39 hot to-go cups for all of 2023.
When asked about the extremely low numbers, Waves replied that it believed "there was a technical error."
"This raises concerns of the validity of the evidence provided,” wrote Little in her decision.
The director penalized the company another nearly $14,000, down from initial $56,900 assessment, for the economic benefit it gained over not having a recycling plan.
In its initial assessment, total penalties recommended for Waves Coffee for its breaches totalled $73,900. That was reduced to $40,000 due to regulatory guidelines.
The final penalty was again dropped down to $30,891 after downgrading how much economic benefit the company received for its environmental breaches.
Waves Coffee has 30 days to pay the fee and reserves the right to appeal the decision.
CINCINNATI (WKRC) - A recent survey reportedly found that 70% of Ohio business owners planned to increase their prices.
According to WTOL 11, citing a report from the Ohio Restaurant & Hospitality Alliance (ORHA), 91% of Ohio business owners said they increased prices to offset rising operational costs.
This month, 70% of Ohio business owners reported that they planned to increase their prices once again, per WTOL 11, citing the ORHA.
"We're the last ones to raise our prices," Biggby Coffee franchisee Gary Dible told WTOL.
Per the station, Dible owns four Biggby locations in northeast Ohio. Speaking to the station, Dible said operational costs had risen since the COVID-19 pandemic, noting the price for six bags of espresso beans has risen from $100 per box to $180.
"Every sector of owning a business has gone up. I'm just not seeing the relief," Dible told WTOL.
Dible told the station that he had only raised prices at his Biggby locations once since the pandemic, but said due to inflation and the need to pay his employees a competitive wage, he will need to raise them once again. That increase would be between 5-15% depending on the item, per WTOL.
"As much as I hate to do it, it's time," Dible told the outlet. "I have to do it now."
Dible told the station that he had stuck it out for as long as possible, but added that he was confident that his prices would be competitive.
"Our pricing, even though it went up, it's still cheaper than our competition," Dible told WTOL.
"I understand, prices do go up," Biggby Coffee customer Michael Judin told WTOL. "As long as the quality stays the same and the service stays the same, I have no problem with them having to raise their prices because they have to."
The ORHA spoke with WTOL and told the station's reporters that according to the latest state of the industry report, it was unlikely that prices would be falling any time in the near future.

Discover Emirati heritage, cuisine and artistry in the heart of Russia's capital city
Moscow: Manezhnaya Square will host Days of UAE Culture, a highlight of the "Summer in Moscow" initiative. Visitors, including both citizens and tourists, are invited to explore the country's attractions, traditional attire, cuisine, henna painting, and an exhibition featuring paintings and photographs.
The program, organized by the UAE Embassy and the Government of Moscow, is part of reciprocal events under bilateral cooperation, explained Deputy Mayor Natalia Sergunina.
"Our partnership covers diverse areas, including tourism. In 2023, Moscow welcomed over 42,000 visitors from the UAE—an eightfold increase from the previous year. This trend continues in 2024, with ongoing growth. We invite everyone to Manezhnaya Square to enjoy exhibitions, musical performances, master classes, photo opportunities with art installations, and sample popular Arab delicacies," announced Natalia Sergunina.
According to her, UAE guests are drawn to Moscow's rich cultural heritage, parks, museums, and the city's diverse culinary scene, blending cuisines from around the world. The majority prefer traveling alone (34.2%) or with a partner (23.8%), opting for comfortable accommodations, with approximately a quarter staying in five-star hotels (23.4%).
"We are delighted to host UAE Culture Days in the heart of Moscow, on iconic Manezhnaya Square. This historical area is among Moscow's most beautiful tourist spots, and we eagerly anticipate showcasing UAE culture and heritage to the Russian people," noted Dr Mohammed Ahmed Sultan Essa Al Jaber, UAE Ambassador to Russia.
The cultural event spans five days, featuring folk performances, an ancient Emirati wedding demonstration, falconry shows, engraving exhibitions, henna art, and displays of antiques and traditional crafts. Visitors can savor Emirati coffee and dishes, purchase UAE goods, and capture memories in specially designed photo zones.
"Cultural exchange between our friendly nations has entered a new phase, reflecting increased UAE tourism to Moscow and growing interest in Russian culture, art, history, and traditions," Dr. Al Jaber added.
Moscow remains a key international tourist destination, with 23 million visitors in 2023, primarily from China, India, CIS countries, and the Middle East. The city actively engages in international collaborations through exhibitions, business missions, and events aimed at global audiences.
