Esfuerzos

Coffee promotion

At the moment we have not had the pleasure to participate in the tours organized by NAMA, since we only recently became part of the project. We attend international fairs, SCAA, SCAE, SCAJ, and we participate in events such as the Cup of Excellence, which are of great help in promoting our coffee.

Carbon and water footprint measurement

As part of our commitment, we have planted, since 2017, Pawlonia trees, an arboreal species that generates large CO2 uptake from the environment. In addition, we process honey and natural coffee, which greatly minimize water and electricity consumption.

Energy efficiency

As part of our efforts with the Chamber of Industry, we followed the recommendations of basic maintenance and improvements in the electrical installations of our mill. For the upcoming 2018/19 harvest, we hope to be able to quantify and validate the positive impact in energy consumption.

Involving producers

For some years now we have been working on the topic of good agricultural practices, reducing the sources of pollution, working with neutral fertilizer mixtures, which help us minimize the nitrogen levels. We also apply microorganisms that continuously work generating a beneficial microflora in the soil and culture.
