About 2,000 Banko Gotiti smallholder farmers
Banko Gotiti is a village and coffee-producing community located in the Gedeb district of the Gedeo Zone in Ethiopia. The Banko Gotiti cooperative was established in 2012 to support local smallholder farmers in the region. These farmers cultivate mixed heirloom coffee varieties at high altitudes, often processing their harvests through local washing stations. The cooperative is recognized for its role in producing high-quality specialty coffee lots that are exported globally.
