This coffee is part of our importer's direct trade coffee buying program.
The "Farm Gate" pricing is a unique pricing model that aims to create a more direct and fair relationship between coffee buyers and farmers. Instead of buying coffee through a middleman or cooperative, coffee is purchased directly from individual farmers, paying them a premium price that reflects the true cost of producing high-quality coffee.
Farm Gate pricing takes into account factors such as the cost of production, labor, and the quality of the coffee. By working directly with farmers, we're able to build long-term relationships with them, supporting sustainable and socially responsible coffee production practices.
The name "Farm Gate" reflects the idea that farmers are able to sell their coffee directly, without having to go through a middleman or cooperative. This helps to ensure that the farmers receive a fair price (far above fairtrade prices) for their coffee, while also encouraging them to produce high-quality beans.
