Tanzania Fully Washed Mutwari AB Eco-Tact

LEMONGRASS, PEAR, GRAPEFRUIT

Sourced from family owned farms organized around Tembo Coffee, an export company that operates in the southern highlands of Mbeya, Tanzania. Tembo generates quality premiums and passes the profit along to individual producers. Tembo has increased the number of participating producers with cash advances that help farmers invest in farm inputs. Tembo has also built washing stations to support producers who are too small or lack the capital to process their own cherry. Tembo has 15 fulltime agronomists in the field to provide technical support. More than 5,000 small producers have been able to improve quality as a result of Tembo’s programs.
