Origin Details

Coffee holds a special place in the Ethiopian culture. It totally differs

from other coffee producing countries that simply produce coffee as a

cash crop. OCFCU is a democratic farmer-owned coop established in

1999 that works exclusively in Oromia Regional State, which accounts

for more than 65% of the country’s total coffee growing land. Operating

under the principles of International Cooperative Alliance and fair trade,

members farmers process and supply high quality, organic Arabica

coffee for direct export.
