Pachamama Coffee Cooperative

Pachamama's founders came together with a vision to revolutionize the coffee industry: to empower farmers to be more than commodity producers. Today, they retain 100% ownership and governance through the cooperative business model. Our owners are Cocla in Peru, Prodecoop in Nicaragua, Manos Campesinas in Guatemala, La Union Regional in Mexico and Ocfcu in Ethiopia. They elect a representative on the Board of Directors with one vote for each cooperative that owns Pachamama Coffee.
This business model changes the narrative for coffee farmers, they set their own prices for coffee and all profits made from the business are allocated back to the cooperatives, turning coffee farmers from price takers to price setters
