Cooperativa Agraria Norandino Ltda.

Cooperativa Agraria Norandino Ltda. is a major Peruvian agricultural cooperative that represents thousands of small-scale coffee, cocoa, and panela producers. Based in Piura, the organization supports farmers across the coastal, mountainous, and jungle regions of northern Peru by facilitating access to specialty markets and development resources.

History

Originally founded in March 1995 as CEPICAFE, the organization later transitioned into the current structure of Cooperativa Agraria Norandino. It has evolved from a small group of 200 members into one of the largest cooperatives in Peru, significantly increasing its export volume to specialty markets in North America, Europe, and Asia.
