Description

In Kenya, coffee is sold mainly through two systems: the Nairobi Coffee Exchange auction or direct sales. Cafe imports source at auction, through exporters, and from direct relationships, allowing them access to a wider range of Kenyan coffees and cup profiles. Getuya Coffee Factory is operated by the Mwirua Farmers Cooperative, founded in 1964. There are 900 contributing producers.

After the coffee is delivered and sorted, it is immediately depulped, fermented underwater for 15–24 hours, and washed three times before being spread on metal drying tables. It typically takes 6–7 days for the Washed coffees to dry, though the factory also produces Honey and Natural coffees.

Therefore Coffee Roasters

We want to live in a world where coffee producers, their families and communities can thrive.

Unfortunately, the history of coffee production is intertwined with that of colonialism and slavery. Even today it is not uncommon for producers and workers to be faced with poverty, food scarcity, and child labour. Modern slavery still exists within the coffee producing industry.

Coffee is traditionally sold at a price that has nothing to do with farmer's living expenses (Read: C Price) and is often below the cost of production. We don't like the idea of Wall Street influencing how much our producers get paid on a given day. Our sourcing partners always pay premium prices based on cost of production and quality; not the market price.
