Services for Coffee Producers
For many emerging producer initiatives clearing the hurdle to overseas niche markets is really challenging. This is not only because of any eventual quality deficits, lack of logistics and communication means, but also because of insufficient information on markets and the needs of target groups.

Coffee Hunting Projects
Many of our promoted producer initiatives are eager to further development. However the implementation of their innovative ideas sometimes requires external support and encouragement.
In this section we aim at initiating and presenting projects which suit our aspiration to make sustainability in coffee more tangible.
You – being a coffee gourmet and/or a representative of a (coffee) company – are invited to be a supporter or beneficiary, e.g.
- to co-finance drying-beds for coffee or a bio-gas plant and receive a participation certificate for your exclusive company coffee! or
- to buy a coffee-forest share to support biodiversity conservation in Ethiopian coffee forests and get the option on an exclusive limited micro-lot of sustainably crafted forest coffee.
By cooperating with approved Non-Governmental Organizations we assure absolute transparency of our activities and transaction.
You’re interested? Then, please contact us for further information.
