COLOMBIA FT-FLO ORGANIC FEDERACION CAMPESINA DEL CAUCA 84+ - 34364-1 - 70.0 kg Ecotact Bags - SPOT SEAFORTH

Sourcing Details In Colombia, being small and big at the same time ensures that distinct, complex, clean and consistent regional blends of certified coffee find their way to us.

Like the vast majority of coffee producers in Colombia, this group of producers, organized around the Federación Campesina Del Cauca (FCC), cultivate, harvest and process coffee on small family owned farms.

For the FCC, the focus starts with educating producer-members to successfully produce organic matter to productively cultivate high quality coffee. Processing Details With just a few acres, each member manages their own micro-mills where meticulous care in cherry selection, depulping, fermenting, and drying coffee takes place.

The attention to details has earned the FCC a reputation for producing specialty coffee. Exporting Details While the details on a small scale are impeccably executed, the FCC goes big working with Exportadora de la Cooperativa del Sur del Cauca (EXPOCOSURCA), a large regional umbrella cooperative that supports smaller producer groups. EXPOCOSURCA provides crucial logistical support for things like warehouses and assisting with certification requirements, and preparing coffee for export.

EXPOCOSURCA helps the FCC gain better access to the international markets for exporting coffee. In addition to marketing coffee internationally, the EXPOCOSURCA provides producers with financing, training, and technical assistance to improve coffee quality. The EXPOCOSURCA also strives to improve the quality of life for coffee producers and their families through projects promoting income diversification and education.
