THE PEOPLE

Charles Mutwiri is the farmer and processor of Mukarimu. From the humble gift of 150 coffee bushes to overcoming global market fluctuations and adopting sustainable practices, Charles has emerged as a true inspiration for other farmers in the Kenyan coffee industry. His commitment to quality and independence has paved the way for a flourishing partnership with Jamii Coffee, ensuring that every bean of his coffee tells a story of passion, perseverance, and resilience.

THE IMPACT

Kenyan-owned Jamii Coffee's main drive is to import economically and environmentally sustainable coffees while increasing the farmer's ownership. "Coffee Belongs to the Farmer" is a new, ethical green coffee sourcing program developed by Jamii Coffee. It vertically integrates the farmers into the supply chain. It is a price guarantee model based on actual production costs. This system ensures that coffee growers are compensated fairly, receiving a stable and equitable price that genuinely reflects the costs and labor involved in coffee cultivation.
