Description
 

Enjoying the Difference

Sumatran coffees capture the wild jungle essence of this tropical Indonesian island. Earthy, deep and complex: a great Sumatran is full bodied, creamy and sweet, with a hint of spices. The Sumatran experience is unrivaled.

Making a Difference

The co-op members are small-scale coffee farmers dedicated to producing 100% shade-grown, organic coffee. Despite years of political unrest in the region, the partnership has continued to produce, process and export high quality Sumatran coffee.
Significant premiums earned from selling to the Fair Trade and organic markets allow this co-op to contribute to a wide variety of programs, including:
  • A credit union to extend small loans to families in the cooperative
  • Upgrades to all processing facilities
  • Community infrastructure projects, such as clean water supply
  • Rehabilitation of degraded lands and unproductive coffee trees
  • Increased staffing and development of the association

"The value added from Fair Trade is not just about money, it's about protecting the ecosystem and our community. We're able to invest in infrastructure to improve our well-being. Thanks to Fair Trade, one of my children is now in medical school and the other is in midwifery school. " Mohammed Salim, Member, PPKGO
