ABOUT THE PRODUCER:

Oromia is a huge state, and covers most of the major coffee territory in Ethiopia. Kedemai Cooperative (established 2018) is located 25km from Agaro, and organized under the umbrella of the Kata Muduga Farmers Cooperative Union. Loans from the Cooperative Bank of Oromia and Kata Muduga allowed the 180 founding members of Kedemai to construct a washing station and purchase equipment. Within two years the cooperative was able to repay loans in full.Through the Kata Muduga system, 90% of the coffee price goes directly back to the cooperative. The farmers (or coop members) are paid cash when they deliver their coffee fruit. They also get an end of season bonus, and member dividends based on coop-wide profit after operations/expenses. Kedemai and Kata Muduga have also donated funds to local school construction.
