Lot Details:

Abdo Abamecha used to work as a supplier to exporters for more than 8 years. He started exporting the coffee from his village, where he was born and has grown. This started in 2023 as he was able to get an export license and also share some facilities with his family member Mustefa Abakeno. He produces both washed and natural coffees at his washing stations in a quality manner with attention to detail.

Perched about 2050 metres above sea level in Meti kebele, Gera woreda, Jimma Zone, the Tullu Demtu washing station has evolved rapidly since its 2017 debut with a handful of drying beds and a lone depulper that handled fewer than 20 tonnes of cherry per season. A major 2021 upgrade installed a Penagos eco-pulping line, expanded the site to 150 raised beds, added warehouse space and built water-clarification ponds, lifting annual capacity to well over 100 tonnes. During the main harvest the station employs roughly 70 seasonal workers alongside six permanent staff.
