Gathaithi Coffee Factory
The story
Gathaithi Coffee Factory was established in 1967. It operates as part of the Gathaithi Farmers’ Cooperative Society in Nyeri County, Kenya, serving over 1,600 smallholder members.
Challenges
Smallholder farmers typically manage very small plots of land, averaging about one half-acre each.
Innovations
The factory utilizes a traditional Kenyan-style processing method that includes an additional soaking phase after washing, which is intended to enhance amino-acid development and flavor intensity.
