About this Product
The Igutha Factory belongs to the Rugi Farmer Cooperative Society (FCS), which currently has 6,500 members, with 700 selling cherries to the Igutha Factory. The soil in this region is rich with nutrients, and the rainfall is plentiful, making this an ideal place to grow coffee in Kenya. The members of the cooperative gather cherries from their farms and deliver them to the factory to be sorted, weighed, and processed. Producers then receive payment based on the weight of their coffee.
The Rugi FCS was formed in the wake of a split of another cooperative. Learning from past experiences, services to their membership are one of their top priorities. Their goal is to increase coffee production through farmer training and sustainable farming practices.
