Asobagri cooperative
ASOBAGRI (Asociación Barillense de Agricultores) is a prominent coffee cooperative based in the Huehuetenango region of Guatemala. It represents over 1,900 small-scale producers across dozens of communities, many of whom are indigenous Maya farmers. The cooperative is widely recognized for its commitment to sustainable, organic, and Fairtrade-certified coffee production.
Farm: Asobagri member farms →History
Founded in 1989 by 20 visionary farmers, ASOBAGRI was established to organize collectively and maintain market access during periods of plummeting coffee prices. The cooperative grew throughout the 1990s, securing organic and Fairtrade certifications by 1999. Over the last three decades, it has expanded its operations to include international exports and various social programs for its members.
