Available for pick-up at our office
Description
This certified Bird Friendly coffee comes from Asociación Civil Guaya’b, an association in the Huehuetenango region of Guatemala. Of its 330members, 316 are of indigenous descent.
Formally established in 1998, Guaya’b began selling to the Fairtrade market in 2000.
“Since we began selling at the Fairtrade price we have seen a big improvement in our quality of life,” says Antonio Carmelo Camposeco, president of Guaya’b. “Cooperative members can now afford to buy clothes and medicine for their families, and they benefitf rom the new programs the cooperative has implemented with revenue from Fairtrade sales.”
The extra income from Fairtrade prices has also enabled Guaya’b farmers to reinvest intheir community. As a result, the region’s economy is more stable, and the rate ofmigration has decreased. Some of the projects conducted with Fair Trade premiums include:
Medical Insurance - Guaya’b cooperative members voted to finance medical insurance for members andtheir families, using their Fairtrade premiums.
Low Interest Micro Loans - Guaya’b cooperative members are provided with low-interest loans that have allowedthem to avoid unscrupulous lenders.
Income from Additional Crops - Guaya’b members have invested their premium funds into growing peanuts, fruit andpeppers for sale in local markets.
This is a balanced, approachable coffee — with moderate caffeine for steady energy and smooth chlorogenic acids that keep the flavor round and easy to drink. It’s versatile and pleasant, and it fits any time of day.
