This coffee is from Coopcab which has three sub cooperatives at different elevations. Blue Pine, Marre Blanc, and Gwo Chwal. Each sub cooperative has around 400 members. Coopcab is the largest cooperative in Haiti, and typically sells coffee to Japan. This coffee is Shade Grown which is a rarity in Haiti, as most areas are much deforested. The President of Coopcab, oversees all coffee processing to ensure consistency for each of the sub cooperatives. Our trading partner, Café Kreyol, partners directly with the cooperative, but also has their own personnel on the ground in these areas to ensure sustainability and quality control on the farm and cooperative level. Cafe Kreyol is currently working with the cooperative to assess the profitability of members/ growers to ensure further financial sustainability.
